Snow Family

I was so pleased when my Rudolph and Friends card was the winner of the 52 Christmas Card Throwdown Sketch challenge and the team invited me to be Guest Designer of their 'Fussy Cutting' challenge.  The cute snowman stamp was one of the items in the bumper bundle of Christmas goodies I've recently won in the Snippets Playground.




To make this card I used:
     C6 white matt card blank
     Wild Rose Studio 'Snowmen' stamp
     Crafts-Too 'Twinkle' embossing folder
     Versafine Onyx Black ink
     Bruynzeel coloured pencils
     White Fun Flock
     Wink of Stella
     Snippets of white matt card

I trimmed a piece of white matt card so it was slightly smaller than the card blank and tore a strip from the bottom.  I embossed the top half of the card with the star embossing folder and attached it to the card blank.  The plain torn strip was then attached across the bottom.  I stamped the snowmen onto a snippet of white matt card and fussy cut them before colouring them with the Bruynzeel pencils.  The image was attached to the card with foam tape.  I applied white Fun Flock to the trim and bobbles on the hats and a Wink of Stella to the holly.    

I am entering the following challenges:
     ABC Christmas Challenge - A for Anything Goes
     Allsorts - Anything Goes
     Daisy Chain Challenge - No Designer Paper
     NBUS - Challenge 70 (I have used my new snowmen stamp)
     Pearly Sparkles Challenge - Something Old, Something New (I have used my old embossing folder and my new stamp)
     Sparkles Christmas Challenge - Warm and Cosy (scarves and hats are keeping the snowmen warm)
     Stamping Sensations - Hand Coloured Image
     We Love Stamping - Anything But Square

A very sweet quartet of snow people (is that PC I wonder) against the starry sky Kath. Many thanks for sharing at Allsorts, Stamping Sensations and We Love Stamping challenges.

Congratulations on winning one of the great prizes over at the Playground Kath, and this snow family stamp is fun and very prettily coloured, and the Twinkle EF and white paper snowhill as the background works brilliantly. x

I'm delighted to hear that you have been on a winning streak, Kath! Congrats on the bundle win and for the recognition and guest designing at 52! I love the way you did the background and how you colored the adorable Snowball family and blinged them up! Thank you for inspiring everyone to use their NBUS! Happy New Year Hugs! Darnell
