Double D Challenge: Santa and/or Snowman


I have a [few] new snowdudes in my stash thanks to a
loving friend who sent me a gift card for my birthday in November!
Imagine my delight when I received the Double D Challenge December prompt above!

Even without a top hat, I think you'll agree that this SSS Snuggle Snowman is
perfect for the challenge!


I mimicked the bright snowy yet sunny day we had on Wednesday using my old favorite Lil' Inkers debossing plate to add movement to my snowflakes
and added a few snippets of HB Merry Moments dsp.
His cute little 'frozen' tree is one of two in a set from SSS Pointy Pine Boughs.
Someone might notice that I made him different 'arms' and made
his arms into feet!  See the dudes below for reference!

For this card I cut my snowman from Neenah Solar White 110# card and his
hat and scarf from C&9th's Poppy card.

Here are a few more that were cut completely from white and colored
with Copic markers...


I'm determined to use a few of the ready-made panels and sentiments I have in my stash! This one was made with grey cardstock and SSS Sparkling Facets.

Here is another that Marcia sent me... PTI Stitched Snowflake cover plate.


That's it from me today.  Thanks so much for stopping by this week!

All these snow dudes and dudettes are super cute Michele. Your backgrounds are always perfectly CAS. I love the twiggy Christmas tree. I think it's brilliant!

Your 'snow play' yielded such fun cards, my friend! These snowdudes are adorable and you have the perfect backgrounds and tree for showing them off. Those hats are precious!

Nice! I love that little guy and his sweetheart, in any color! I just ordered several too -- they went from OH, made their way to Denver, then straight back to OH! Now I'm waiting as they start their move back -- hope they make it soon!

Each one is just as darling as the next! I like your colors and backgrounds on all of them!

Oh the cuteness! I’d say that little guy looks right at home and I’ll bet we’ll be seeing him a bit more! Live the snow couple—that’s a perfect Tom and Michele card!

Can't beat ready made parts and what a fabulous part the Sparkling Facets EF is! I noticed those adorable little feets right off. How cute all your cards are! Love the little pine bough as a tree in your first two. So sweet! I almost bought a raincoat in that pretty peach yesterday, but got aqua instead. Now I feel like going back for another. The stitching on the scarves is a great detail, as is the knit texture of the hats. Very fun, Michele!
