Winter Wonderland - Let it Snow!

I'm really getting into my Christmas cards now since joining in with the challenges at Winter Wonderland. The theme this week is "Let it Snow"


Stamps:-
"Snowman Bearing Gift" - Woodware
"Frosty White Wintertime Snow" - Hero Arts
Background Paper - Basic Grey
Nestabilities - Curved Rectangle
Copics
Distress Inks:- Faded Jeans and Spiced Marmalade
Microbeads

This snowman stamp is one of my all time favourites for Christmas cards and I've used him every year since I bought him so he was worth every penny. I stamped him twice, cut one of the images out with the nestabilities, distressed the background and drew snow and snowflakes with glue and sprinkled on microbeads. I cut the second image out and attached with 3d foam pads. I stamped the sentiment, cut out each word and mounted onto a distressed background and attached to card with 3d foam pads.
