"Could that be any cuter?!"

I have said that at least one hundred times myself - so I'm putting it to the test today!  This cute little snowflake-catcher comes out to play each Winter - how can she be resisted?  Today I've tucked her inside a shaker and here is where that question comes in... could this be any cuter?

Such a cutie it wouldn't matter what color her outfit was - but I 

used Carol's JUGS colors from Challenge #659 today.

The CAS design is neat and clean with lots of white - but I felt like the shaker

element was just 'hanging in the wind.'

Could it be cuter?  You be the judge...

Are you catching the changes?  I cut another shaker window panel,

snipped it short and sloped it to make a snow hill, then added debossed details 

using a HoneyBee die.

There were a few more snowflakes added to the outside of the shaker, too.

So, did it get cuter, or should I have left it alone?  I won't be mad - I'm really interested in your thoughts!!  Let me know in the comments - thanks!

Sugar Pea Mix it Up Challenge #74

 I really don't think I need to say much ... I'll let this do all the talking ...

How could I resist?  my sweet little buddy from Hey Winter was so happy to play again today - he GNOMES me SO well!  My card for Sugar Pea Mix Up #74:

and a few stamps from the Hey Winter set for the scene outside the window.

He borrowed his style from his SSS Gnomie! shown here:
