Keepin' on!

Hi stampers!  Well, my mojo seems to be sticking around!  Today's card is for the KAPOW Kreative Challenge.

Isn't it pretty?  I think this is one I'll have to file away for future use as well!  And I did a holiday card but I think this one would be great for a patriotic card too but everyone knows I'm in full holiday crafting swing:-)

So I thought the little chubby snowman from Snow Much Fun would look great all decked out in these colors.

Stampin' Supplies:
Stamps:  Snow much fun, petite pairs
Paper:  Sahara sand, whisper white, baja breeze, not quite navy, real red, watercolor
Ink:  stazon, sahara sand, baja breeze, not quite navy, real red
Accessories:  2.5 inch circle punch, northern flurry embossing folder, basic pearls, holly berry bouquet buttons, dazzling details, smooch accent ink, crochet thread

So I have heard some talk lately about this set and how about how snowmen don't have feet....so I cut his poor legs off, lol!  Most of this card is pretty basic but I did make the "snow" my punching out a few circles and just free-handing some drifts which I outlined in dazzling details and then scribbled on a bit with the smooch accent ink for some extra sparkle.  A button and a few pearls and I called it a day!

Happy stamping!

    You cut off his feet? How cruel are you? But really, it is perfect for your card. This is adorable! Thanks for playing at KKC this week.

    Mindy, this is cuteness with a capital "C"! Love how this little guy just pops off the card and all of the fun detail you added. Even though it sounds mean, I kind of like these guys sans feet, as well. They look more rolly-polly. Lol! Hope your weekend was great! :)

    Love love love the snow drifts and all the dimension around them, and I have to love the embossing folder - they're my absolute favourite thing!!
    Lovely card!

    Saw your card and thought it looked like the sketch from creating pretty cards this month (craft paper central). You should enter it!

Thanks for your comments. I probably won't respond unless you ask a direct question (because I know my limits, lol) but I read and appreciate every single one <3
