I went with a digital image of a snowman from Squigglefly. I printed him out and colored him with Copics before cutting around him. The beauty with this image is that there's a lot of shading already on the image so it's not hard to make him good good LOL. As a finishing touch, I put a dot of Dazzling Details into the center of the poinsettia on his hat.
To showcase him, I stamped the gingham circle from Kind and Cosy on Whisper White and punched out the center. I stamped the greeting before tying some Lucky Limeade Baker's Twine around the Whisper White than adhered it to the Cherry Cobbler card base using dimensionals. I then put my snowman in the center also using dimensionals. A very simple card.
And in keeping with the country theme, he's the inside of the card.
Thanks so much for visiting my blog today. I hope you've checked out the rest of the fabulous DT inspiration at Merry Monday. I look forward to seeing your snowman cards in the gallery :)
