Layout your images as shown; the Jalopy image is 3-1/2"x4", the North Pole is 3"x1-3/8", snow drifts 1-1/2", sentiment is
1-1/2". I used the pre-colored Images for the top/base to speed up the card making process. I sized the Black & White Jalopy image and snow drifts to match the pre-colored images. Print your images on Hammermill® 100lb. White Coverstock and a second copy on copy paper. Color as desired, I used Copic® Markers.
I colored the Jalopy image with exception of the packages in the car to add some dimension.
Fussy cut the hand colored image. Also cut the packages section off as shown.
Fussy cut the pre-colored image and North Pole on the copy paper to use as a mask.
Using the largest nesting oval die 6-1/4"x4-1/2" cut out the pre-colored Jalopy image on the Hammermill® 100 lb. Coverstock as shown.

Flip the lower scrap over the top and airbrush color some shadows using B63 as shown. Let Dry.
