Jolly Old Snowman

Several of the blogs I read have talked about how they are getting snow in the area they are from.  While we don’t have any mention of it, I thought I would make my own winter card.

I began with the sketch challenge from Sketch Frenzy Friday.

I love the look of Baja Breeze for snow so I started with that.  I like Crumb Cake with Baja Breeze so I decided that would be my card base.  I then added in Not Quite Navy and I had my colors.

I have not played with the cute snowman from Jolly Old St. Nick so I used that image along with the snowflakes.  I got the snowflake die in the Holiday Mini and knew I wanted to play with it also.  After I used my Big Shot I added rhinestones in the center.  I did not add a sentiment as I really want to use the saying “Let it Snow” and I don’t have one small enough.  I will have to go looking in my stamps before I send it out to see if I have an old one.  As a final step I spritzed it with the Vanilla Smooch Spray that I just got so it is very sparkly.  Since I used a snowman it also fits the Snowman challenge at The Paper Players.

Here is my creation.

Have you had snow in your area yet?  It will be nice to have some for Christmas as I love a White Christmas.  Thanks for looking and have a Wonderful Wednesday!
