I colored up a beautiful snowman from Purple Onion's Stacey Yacula range and once I was finished, I decided to make him into a card. I went looking for a suitable sketch as this fella is pretty big! I found this week's Mojo Monday and went to work.
Isn't this snowman and his little bunny friend just too cute? I cut each layer with stitched dies. For the green layer, rather than use green cardstock, I sponged some Green Apple ink around the edges to give some added interest. For the round element at the bottom, I didn't want to cover up my bunny, so I die-cut a vellum snowflake, punched two tiny holes in it and threaded some green twine through it before tying a little bow.
Looking at the snowflake in the photo, I might paint it with clear Wink of Stella and see if that makes it pop a bit more.
Thanks for visiting.

This is an adorable card!! Your coloring is awesome!! I love the blue and green, and also that sweet little bunny.
Charming! I love the vellum snowflake - it's so soft and doesn't cover any of the image - fabulous look!
