Happy Wednesday, peeps! I finally got around to making a card with some scraps that had been loitering on my desk since Christmas! Dana had some really cute wrapping paper and she saved some scraps for me and this little snowman was begging to be put on a Christmas card:
I had the DSP on my desk as well, but the trees were white, and they looked a little stark with my Basic Beige card base, so I brayered on some Crumb Cake ink to give it more of a vintage look. I embossed a panel with a snowflake embossing folder, then added Mr Snowman with some snowflakes and a sentiment from the retired Winter Wishes:
You can't see it, but the snowflakes have some pretty Wink of Stella on them to make them glitter! A sentiment from the retired Peaceful Season went on the inside:
I thought this would be appropriate for the Peace on Earth Christmas challenge for February:
Naturally, I chose that sweet little snowman as my inspiration! Thanks for popping in today! Enjoy it and be blessed!

ReplyDeleteYour fussy-cut fellow is just as cute and your clever brayer-ing really brought worked a charm!
