Stamping: Gnome Snow Globe w/ Lawn Fawn and Clearly Besotted

 

For my second try at a die cut snow globe I wanted to do something not holiday themed. I had these tiny gnome stamps still out on my desk and I thought I'd pair them with a background that came from a fairy set. I really liked the sunrise that I'd done on a recent colouring book page so I thought I'd repeat the look in the globe. I also decided that I wanted to colour the globe's base instead of using inks. I feel like I have more control of the overall look and Copics are just my preferred medium for everything I colour. I also used a different circle die to cut out the globe part, which I think looks better than the previous one. It's all about experimentation and finding what works for you and your style. That's one of the things I like about crafting and creating scenes like this. It's like a puzzle, fitting the pieces together, but you're making the picture up as you go along.
