A splash of Christmas

Hello,  I found time for a quick play today to get some more Christmas cards done - this one was inspired by the colour splash challenge over at The Play Date Cafe - the splash being red.
I stamped the snowman (Judikins) used an H2O to paint his scarf, mounted on some black and metallic red card and stamped a few snowflakes on the black card with brilliance white. It was really tricky to photograph the metallic red card - this was the best I could do.

I'm also sharing this at -
