Christmas at Sweet Stampin' - Snow People


Good morning! A Christmas card today, my DT make for the August Challenge over at CaSS. The theme for this is 'Snow People' and we're sponsored by Robyn's Fetish. The DT were given some cute digis to use... I chose this cheery snowman, he's available  here. I coloured the image with copics and added some white frantage for snow...managed not to burn the paper with my heat tool this time!!! :) The papers are from Docrafts, a real bargain at a craft show I went to a couple of weeks ago.
I'm feeling quite pleased as my little stack of Christmas cards is slowly growing...hopefully, this year, I won't be frantically trying to make them in December when I have far to many other things to do!
Why not dig out your Christmas stash and join us this month...it'll be one less card you need to make when that busy time descends upon us! Just click here to visit the Challenge Blog and enjoy the beautiful creations from the rest of the team...and to add your own lovely snowperson!

So adorable Chris! I just love snowmen and this guy is sweeeeeet!! The plaid is such a great Christmas pattern, reminds me of childhood and all the throw pillows and blankets Mom would pull out for the holidays! Very festive! hugs :)
