This a really simple and quick card. I started out coloring a white paper blue, then I heat embossed with white EP using a Tim Holtz stamp. I mounted the image, colored with Promarkers, with foam onto the background. Frantage used as snow. White seambinding ribbon, a stamped and die cut tag and some glitter gems and that was it.
I'm sorry I haven't been around visiting blogs much lately, I actually haven't had much computer time/time home at all. I miss visiting and will catch up from the middle of next week as I'm heading for a holiday in Prague first.
This card is also for:
The Male Room - #50 Christmas/Winter Wishes/Dec Celebrations
Cutie Pie Challenge - Cute + A Day in the Snow
Use Your Stuff - Let It Snow
I think this is the perfect Christmas card - it's fun, it's snowy, it's cute and a bit fancy. Have fun in Prague.

Love the background treatment - it looks like a warm fuzzy sweater (or jumper? In the USA we say sweater!) It's a perfect background for this delightful Snow pair. The coloring on the Snowies is wonderful, and the falling snow adds such an icy feel. No apologies for being MIA, it happens to all of us. Just visit when you can, & I'll try to do the same! Best wishes for a wonderful 2017. TFS & Hugs
ReplyDeleteThis is SO sweet, Pia! I just love that little guy staring at the adorable Christmas tree!! I hope your holiday in Prague was sensational and I wish you all the best for a healthy and happy new year!! Hugs, Darnell
ReplyDeleteThank you for your lovely comment on my Merry Christmas post Pia. I hope the boys are recovering from the Chickenpox and your mojo comes back soon. Also hope your Christmas was wonderful.
