Here's what I came up with:
Again, I made two! Two more down!!!
And notice I'm taking everyone's advice and doing cards that can be late so we can include the baby in our family Christmas photo.
Thank you all!
Snowman and layers were cut at 3.75" high.
There is a layer that looks like cute little buttons, but I decided to use real buttons instead.
Looking at it now I wish I had stamped a little checked background on the scraft and/or ran it through the Cuttlebug for some texture. Oh well, next time!
I still think he looks Super Cool though and
"Warm Winter Wishes" is the perfect sentiment from him!
AND I must give a shot out to Papertrey Ink! Their sentiments are wonderful and so many of them fit perfectly in punches!
FYI, I don't work for nor do I design for them!
I'm just a fabulous and happy customer!
Recipe:
Card Base: SU Blue Bayou 4 1/4" X 5 1/2" (folded)
Card front: Soft Sky 4" X 5 1/4"
Other Cardstock / Paper: SU Real Red, black, white
Ink: Real Red
Stamps: PTI Stocking Prints (sentiment)
Accessories: SU Oval punches, Buttons, needle and thread, Gypsy & Smiley Cards download, Cricut, Cuttlebug & Snowflakes embossing folder, SU Ribbon Originals "District"
