If you have been around me for a while you will know I love snow. I’m pretty sure its because here on the south coast of the UK we never get snow, so its like this fairytale dream I have of how wonderful snow is. I’m sure my friends around the world who actually have snow on a regular basis have a different idea of snow.
The Snowy Wonder stamp set and bundle along with the co-ordinating papers make it easy to make quick Christmas cards.
Using a Balmy Blue or Pool Party blend marker on the inside of the stamped image of the snowman, gives him depth and dimension. I picked up the colours from the patterned paper.
The Penguin has just been cut out of the paper, and I’ve layered him onto a stamped Pool Party two tone card, which I’ve added a few ‘pearl’ snowflakes.
Christmas cards don’t have to be time consuming or difficult to make. Your family and friends will be delighted that you have taken the time to create something for them and we have had the joy of creating them as well.
I would love to know how you are getting on with your Christmas cards, leave me a comment or send me an email.
