Snowman

Hi there!  I have a few cards I've never posted due to all the distractions lately and so will hope to share them this month.  In this case I had planned to make several more CAS snowman cards for a Christmas batch but after a month and a half of good intentions I've decided to save the rest of them for later.

I saw the CAS Christmas Card Challenge where host Christine is asking for a winter scene and so I figured this fit and it's time I get back into the fun of an occasional challenge.



I used three die sets:

Memory Box Snowman Heart Collage
Impression Obsession Let it Snow
Impression Obsession Small Snowflake Set

Arranged all that against a 110 lb card base embossed with the Sizzix Snowfall folder.  The colored parts are Copics, the eyes and buttons are Viva Decor black pearl pen.  I applied Wink of Stella to the sentiment and snowflakes so it's all shimmery pretty in real life.

Also sharing at two other favorite challenges:


 


Thanks, everyone, for coming to visit.  I love when we can get together and I'll be back soon, I'm sure. 

 Have a great day!

Seeing your adorable snowman reminds me of the snowman down the street that the little girl and her Dad made. It is still hanging in there. Love yours in the heart with a little heart on his chest. Joe had a Dr's appt. early this AM and when we got out it was snowing again! We just sat in the car until it stopped and then drove home! It is going to warm up this week so maybe we will get out a bit! Take care!

Leslie, I'm loving your white on white with a pop of colour with your snomans hat and scarf :). Your colouring amazes me, his hat is so perfectly coloured. I'm so glad you had a chance to play along with us at CAS Christmas ♥

So glad to see you jumping into some challenge. It's fun for us! You know I love this snowman wearing his heart on his sleeve.

Love white on white you know that but this snowman is adorable. I really like the swiss dots snow on the top and not on the bottom, awesome card.

Pam Sparks said...

Love this one Leslie! Not enough time to get all the snowman cards made and posted I agree! sigh... probably more my lack of time management skills! ha!

Lynette said...

So sweet and so beautiful. I always love the composition of your cards - amazing! I love that embossing folder, also. I don't own that one.

laurie said...

Awe...so sweet! Love this one too!

Colleen said...

Leslie, I love your design. First of all, the adorable snowman inside a heart warms my heart and then the falling snow in the background and the die cut flakes along with the sentiment is just perfect. I was hoping for a little bit more snow here in Oregon for us...but I guess it is not meant to be (now watch, I will have to bite my tongue because we will probably get a blizzard!!LOL) And I insisted on my husband getting a generator because last year we went without power for 8 days...and we are on a well! Now HE says we probably wont need it for 20 years! Thank you so much for joining us at CAS Christmas!!

Julia Aston said...

What a creative design with your snowman tucked inside the die cut heart! Thanks for sharing with us at CAS Christmas! xx

Pauline said...

I know I'm a bit behind in commenting, just catching up before heading back to work tomorrow. Enjoy your day Leslie,

Loll said...

Goodness, Leslie, I'm so late with my comment on this adorable card.
This snowman and heart are one of the cutest dies I've seen from you, love it!!!
The pristine white background makes this cutie pie shine beautifully.
Thank you for sharing.
Stay healthy and safe.
