I wanted to make a flat card (CAS) for mailing and I challenged myself to stay away from snowflakes - seems I put them on almost every cold and snowy card. Turns out this was a lot harder than I thought. Then I finally got some inspiration from a quilt. After all, what is better than a nice warm quilt when the mercury takes a dip?
Supplies:
Image - Wee Stamps Miss Frosty in rubber by Whimsy stamped on watercolour paper in black Stazon and coloured with Distress inks
Paper - Tim Holtz Merriment stash - it has lots of little pieces that were perfect for this layout
Other - glitter for the snow and Marvy Snow marker for the trim on the snow woman's hat and scarf, needle and thread
