He's part of the Christmas Flamingo set from Sparkle N Sprinkle and is colored with Copic markers and then spritzed with Perfect Pearls mist (Perfect Pearl). The image has been cut out using the Lifestyles Crafts rick rack nesting dies.The image was matted onto a darker kraft circle and then adhered to an ink embossed panel. This panel is easy to reproduce. Take any embossing folder (Sizzix's Snow Flurries used here), ink up one side with your favorite inks (I used Distress Ink), place the cardstock inside the folder and run it through your machine. The ink transfers to either the embossed or debossed portion of your card (depending on which side of the folder you inked up). The base cardstock is a mirrored cardstock for added sparkle. For even more details, you can visit the SNS Art Gallery, here.
I'm entering this in the following challenges: Simon Says (just add pearl), Hooked on Crafts (Christmas - no red or green).

Love this fun card- the image is so cute and I love the sign.....does he know he will melt if he goes to Florida??? I love the die offset you used and the EF background- and the shimmer : )
Another fabulous card Anne. I love the snowman and the sentiment is fabulous and your little tale of him wanting to see his snow/sand woman.
