Hi friends! I'm back with another project featuring the Ultimate Snow Globe Shaker Die! This time I decided to use it as a snow globe. I just love the cute little scene building dies Linh included to create your own winter scene. As a kid, I had a snow globe very similar to this, with a blue sky, a snowman, and some snowy hills. So it seemed like the perfect time to recreate it.
I started with the smaller of the large circles on white cardstock as well as some metallic cardstock. I used the hill border die on the glitter paper circle to create the slopes, then masked off the area where I wanted the hills to go on the white circle. I blended the sky with chipped sapphire, faded denim, and stormy sky distress ink, then dropped water droplets on it, for the effect of falling snow.
Next I cut out the snow man from white cardstock. I pieced in the nose and buttons with orange and black cardstock pieces, then used Copic markers for the hat, arms, and a bit of shading around his body. The tree was cut from evergreen cardstock and I added just a touch of texture with a dark green Copic.
I cut a few snowflakes from the same glitter paper for accents, then chose a dark background to let my snowglobe really stand out. The snow globe base is cut with woodgrain paper from the Farm Life paper pad. I sponged around the edges with vintage photo distress ink for a b it of depth, then embossed the Let it Snow sentiment from Winter Wishes directly onto the bas to finish things off.
Thanks so much for stopping by today! I hope you have a fabulous day!
