Love the tag Tim Holtz has up for today... I think rock candy crackle paint is a great addition to any project. On this tag I also used paint, distress inks, and distress stains.
Tim has a wonderful idea using a shape die in the belly of the snowman. I don't have the one he used so I used a heart (Tim/Sizzix) instead and filled it with Glossy Accents by Ranger. The snowman is a Sizzix die as well.
I added some MM metal snowflakes, a bit of blue fuzzy rickrack, some "coal" for eyes and mouth, and a candy cane.
Are you playing along? Let me know in your comment so I can come see what you're up to!

Wow Marjie, you did a beautiful job on this tag! It's stunning! And that you faced the snowman the other way! I'm enjoying the tags of christmas too, so much fun!!

Love this one Marjie. I haven't even been to Tim's blog yet today. Shopped with my oldest daughter today and then back for second half of Packer game so just getting to the computer now.

I love how your snowman has personality with a face and a heart - seems really poignant that if he were real he'd eventually melt away - think this is truly beautiful x

I really likw the colors in this one! And I really loved Tim's technique with the cut out and Glossy Accents. I had a lot of fun with that part. Yours came out great. Love the "coal"!
