Just Inklined: Fat Snowman!

Just a quick post to share this cute snowman with you.  This is Fat Snowman from Just Inklined and I think he is just too funny!!  I used this month's SFYTT (so sad, it's the last one).  Earlier this week I was stalking Julee Tilman's blog and she did the funnest thing with her ribbon (check it out, here)… I tell ya, that girl is amazing!  Anyway, I did a little playing around with mine and this is the outcome 🙂  I think I like the card, but there really aren't any "layers" so it's WAY out of my comfort zone, lol.

I've been playing with lots of snow images lately, and I'm having LOTS of fun shading it with different color familes… snow doesn't have to be gray!  Unfortunately, I didn't get a great photo of this guy so you can't see my colors well but I used a pale gray/purple palette… LOVE the look 🙂  I used a Spica Glaze pen for the "coal" eyes and buttons… love the shine and it makes it pop some.
