Snowmen and Flocked Circles
Here is one of my FAVORITES of all the different cards I made for Christmas this year!!!
Edited - I finally found the supplier of this awesome read paper -- it is by Doodlebug Designs and you can see it HERE. It is velvet flocking!
I found this awesome paper at my local scrapbooking store!! It has those awesome flocked circles on it. It looks so awesome in real life. Unfortunately, I can't remember who it is by....anyone out there know?? I used it all up and can't for the life of me remember.... sheesh!! I'll try to find it and edit this post.
The card came together easily. I cut the polka dot paper to fit on the white card base. Then, I added a big white bow. Well, I did one bow but it was so fussy that I decided to make the rest with just a knot.... call me lazy!! But that one bow did turn out awesome, eh!!
Next, I used my Made of Snow set to build my snowmen! I love the flexibility of this set!! These snowmen can have so many various looks. If you look carefully at the faces of these 3 cards you will see that some of their faces are different!! That is just the beginning!! You must go over to Papertrey Ink and check it out!!
I colored in the scarves, buttons, mittens and hat band in red. Then, I used my light grey Prismacolor marker to shade in one side of the snowman. Cut out the snowman. Next, I added that little spirg of holly on the snowman top hat. That little stamp comes from the Borders & Corners {oval} set also from Papertrey Ink. It turned out to be the perfect size to fit on that hat!! I love it when that kind of thing happens!!! Finally, I adheared the snowman with some dimensionals.
I really enjoyed making this card. I hope all my family and friends who I sent it to enjoy it also!!
Thanks for dropping in for a visit!!

What a fantastic card. Making the snowman almost sounds a little finicky. But it turned out great.
