Snowballs for Cardz 4 Guyz

It took me a while to decide what to make for this week's theme of Balls at Cardz 4 Guyz .  I didn't want to go down the sporty route of footballs, golf balls etc. Then as I'm slowly getting into Christmas card mode I thought if snowballs. Of course having decided that this was what I was going to do I had nothing suitable, so went searching for a suitable digistamp and found two at Bugaboo.



I embossed the base card with a Cuttlebug snowflake folder then brushed some Soft Sky ink gently over the top to add a bit of colour. The image was coloured with Copics and some texture added to the snowballs with a fluffy stuff type of pen, then a bit of glitter as well.


For  for my second card I used my new distressed collage die for the background (thanks to Darnell for enabling me!) as I thought the circles could represent snowballs. Again I used Copics to colour the image and mounted it onto some green holographic card. The sentiments on both were from my stash from an old Kanban decoupage kit.
