Tis the Season

While trying to decide on my next holiday card, I found the left over bit from die cutting a snowman and circle frame on a previous card.  I inked the left over piece with Distress ink in Stormy Sky.  After that dried, I added some snow using embossing paste and the Simon Says Stencil Falling Snow(love this!).



I stamped the snowman and sentiment on a card base using Majestic Blue Versafine ink. The nose and the scarf were colored with an orange sharpie.  I used 1/8 inch foam tape to mount the inked and snowy piece as a frame around the snowman.  The die and stamp are Hero Arts 657781 and the sentiment is CL691. To add a bit of holiday sparkle, I cut the front of the card by a quarter inch, and on the inside portion I added a strip of DCWV glitter paper.

I am entering this card in the following challenges:

Die Cut Diva's December Challenge - Snow and Christmas/Hollidays

I love that snowman - he's a delightful Hero Arts stamp and die-cut. Love the round snowy background.
