Hello again and welcome to the Social Stamping Blog Host where I am joined by a group of talented crafters from around Australia and New Zealand.
The group was started by my lovely friend and fellow Stampin' Up! demonstrator Kelly Kent as a way of keeping connected, creating and sharing while we are all being socially distant.
You may have arrived from seeing Sheila's gorgeous creation but if you started here, click the 'Next' button at the bottom of this post to continue hopping.
The theme Kelly has chosen for us this month is 'Merry & Bright'.
I decided to do an Australian Christmas themed card. However, on reflection, Frosty's Christmas Day may not have been so merry and bright lol!
When I saw the 'Frosty The Snowman' image in the 'Don't Stop Believin' stamp set, I immediately had the vision of him melting on the beach here in Oz.
The 'Sending Sunshine' stamp set enabled me to easily create the beach background for him.
The sentiment in the stamp set is actually "Sadly....Frosty's first hot cocoa turned out to be his last" but I wanted to create my own sentiment to suit the theme.
I created the two-lined sentiment on my computer and printed it onto Whisper White cardstock in Real Red using the RGB codes to get the correct colour. I then took the original stamp and inked up the word 'Sadly....' with my Stampin' Write Marker and stamped it onto the printed sentiment.
