I used Nikki and Buttercup Building a Snowman for my card this week and colored it using my copics and prismacolor pencils. I embossed my background using the snowflake folder from Cuttlebug's Winter Wonderland embossing set and added stickles and pearls to the snowflakes. I cut mounds of snow and used Glamour Dust and stickles for some sparkle. I used pop dots on my snow mounds to give them some dimension. I don't think the picture really shows how much glitter is on this baby...but believe me, I truly had glitter everywhere lol!
