If you're not familiar with the adorable digital stamps in the LTTS Doodles Etsy Shop, you really need to go check them out!  I printed this sweet bunny and her penguin buddies on Neenah card stock, colored it with copics, and fussy cut it.  I used both black and white gel pens on the bunny eyes.  I stamped a panel of bristol card with a snowflake stamp from My Favorite Things and heat embossed it with white embossing powder.  Next, I inked the panel with Broken China, Chipped Sapphire, and Black Soot Distress Oxide Inks.  I wiped over the embossing with a clean towel to remove the ink from the snowflakes and then adhered the panel to the front of my card.  I die cut the red frame using a die from My Favorite Things and I die cut the snowy slope using a die from Lawn Fawn.  I adhered the frame, snowy slope, and colored image to my card with foam tape.  The sentiment is from a stamp set in my stash by Mama Elephant.
