Snow Friends

Last week we saw everything from freezing temperatures to mild and above freezing - it has been a weird mix! On Saturday when I ventured in to my craft room to make a card I couldn't decide what stamp I wanted to use. However, I woke up to a blizzard warning and crazy winds and snow.......so I decided one more card with a snowman using "Snow Friends" from High Hopes Rubber Stamps would be more than appropriate. 

We got a large dumping of snow and the wind blew that snow into our driveway - up to my knee in most places. My hubby used the snow blower to clean it up the next day and he always does most of our neighbours driveways as well. He is a good guy and a good "snow" friend to the young people who live on our street. I made this card with him in mind because I am sure all the neighbours appreciate not having to shovel!

After stamping this cute snowman and bird friend on alcohol marker friendly paper I coloured it with Copic markers and cut it out using a circle die. I cut the bottom of it off to form more of a half circle for my design. Patterned paper from Recollections was a perfect snowy match. I cut the pieces to fit and added the stamped image after I added some matching card stock. 

I added my patterned paper layers, stamped the sentiment and cut it out using a fish tail banner die. Some die cut snowflakes, ribbon and enamel dots finish off my card.
