Merry Christmas, Papercrafters!! It is my sincere hope that you're
all warm & safe, and that you're surrounded by family and friends
this holiday.
Our challenge for the
next two weeks is winter. We've been inspired by the All Bundled Up
line from Carta Bella and the Yeti, Set, Go stamp set by Lawn Fawn.
For
my project, I liked the idea of a wintery scene without having it be
Christmas-y or actually saying winter. I went with the snowman sticker
from Carta Bella with his arms outstretched. It seemed to coordinate
perfectly with the "need a hug?" saying from the Lawn Fawn stamp set.
Unfortunately, lots of people get the blues in the winter... this would
be a great card to help cheer them up!
The
grey, snowy paper made a great background. I added a rolling hill
which can be cut by hand or, in this case, I used a pair of Paper
Smooches dies -- one for the cut and one for the stitches. And, a
little glitter (or Stickles) goes a long way on a card like this by
adding some glisten to the snow.
I'm
more of a CAS (clean & simple) stamper, but this card could be
dressed up even further with things like black gems on the eyes &
buttons of the snowman, pop dots behind the snowman sticker, bling in
the snowflake background... there are a thousand ways to add to it.
Whether you like 'em fancy or plain, I encourage you to submit your project! Please see Tuesday's Cuttin' and Stampin' post to enter yours.
Happy Stamping & Merry Christmas!
