You Melt My Heart


 It's never too early to start getting ready for Christmas :)


I was excited to use a couple of my new stamp and die bundles from Paper Sweeties that I had gotten a couple months ago and hadn't used yet.  The bundles I used are Holly Days Bundle and 
I LOVE these stamp and die bundles....you get the cutest stamps and matching dies which makes creating so easy.  Just for example, the Holly Days bundle has 7 stamps and 7 matching dies, and Thanks Snow Much has more!!!

I used chalk to add shading on the snow and snowman and outlined everything with glittler gel pens.  I used watercolor pencils on the snowmans hat & scarf.  And his eyes of "coal" are Imaginisce i-rock Rhinestuds.

Here are some fun challenges....

Try It On Tuesday - Try Something New
Cuttlebug Mania - Anything Goes
C.R.A.F.T. Challenge - #328 Christmas

Thanks for stopping by and....
HAPPY CRAFTING!!!

  2. So adorable! I love the cute snowman, and the patterned paper for the background, that resembles snow flurries. Great take on Mynn's card this month. So glad you shared with us at CASE-ing Christmas!
