Hello, dear friends! Just a moment to thank you for visiting and leaving encouragement. We're coming to terms with my "new" limitations. Your kindnesses help me more than you know... so THANK YOU!
Here is another fat snowman, reminding why sometimes being fat might be beneficial - LOL - we all know THAT'S not true, but it's a good story!
To create the sparkling snow, I applied VersaMark ink and clear EP. After that was melted, a VersaMarker was applied atop the melted clear EP. I dumped a ton of clear glitter on it, and re-melted the EP from the underside of the image. After putting a little more glitter on top of the melted EP+Glitter combo, I reheated it from the under side again. It's really sparkly and the embossing powder holds the extra glitter so it won't rub off!

Donna this is absolutely gorgeous - and he looks so cuddly, albeit it a bit chilly :)
Thanks for telling us how you added the glitter to the re-melted embossing powder

That's true they do last longer :) That is a very cute image, and the stenciling around it is neat too. That is a great idea with the glitter, like the design of your card too!
Oooh, he's a chubby and handsome guy -- more of him to love and for a longer time! A very cute image and card. Cool trick about the glitter. It's great fun to see your posts, Donna. I'm sorry it took me so long to get here.
I like your idea with glitter and embossing powder... Lovely!
