Merry Christmas Snowman Set


Hello, friends!  Just stopping by today to share a set of Christmas cards I made for the Caring Hearts Card Drive using my favorite snowman ever!  I think this wraps it up for me, I need to send these cards in before the November 30th deadline!  I am sending in about 15 cards...although I think they'd be happy to receive even one!  Be sure to check it out...such a great cause.
 
So, I mentioned my favorite snowman ever.  Have you met this fella?  He is part of the "Vintage Christmas" stamp set sold at Jane's Doodles Shop.  LOVE him!  I really like paper-piecing his hat and scarf.  Fun, fun, fun!
 
So, last winter I had stamped this fella multiple times onto various patterned papers and cut them out, then stashed them away for later.
 
Later has arrived!  Here is what I came up with, mixing and matching hats and scarves.  The sentiment is computer generated using different font colors to match the papers I used; I also played with a bunch of embossing folders to add some textures.
 
 
 
 
 
 
Here is a close-up of the Stickles sparkle...
 


Since I had the paper pieces pre-cut, this card set took no time at all.  Love that!

Thanks for peeking...have a great day!
