Color Dare #111 - Sorbet, Cranberry, Pacifica, Lagoon, Olive

My Cricut was humming this week as I cut the shapes for my card from the Artbooking Cricut Collection (Z1906).  Now I'm going to let you in on a little secret.  This delightful snowman has a lot of small pieces to it.  You could cut them all out of different colors of cardstock, but I didn't feel like switching that many colors on my mats.  So instead, I cut them all out of white cardstock and used my ink to color them!  The sentiment was the only piece I cut from colored cardstock.

• I started with a Pacifica (X5759) card.
• I free cut a few snowy hills from White Daisy (1385) cardstock.  I used a sponge to edge the hills with Lagoon (Z2195) ink, so they would be differentiated from each other.
• I cut all the pieces of the snowman out of White Daisy (1385) cardstock.  I colored the hat and scarf with Lagoon (Z2195) ink, the carrot nose with Sorbet (Z2164) ink, the eyes with Black (Z2105) ink, and branch arms with Cocoa (Z2114) ink. 
• I also cut the snowflakes and trees from White Daisy (1385) cardstock.  I colored trees with Olive (Z2137) ink and left the snowflakes white.
• I cut the sentiment from Cranberry (1272) cardstock.
• I added Sparkles (Z1752) to the snowflakes and for Frosty's buttons.
