Snowman ATC


I must be insane!! I have NO extra time in my life right now! In fact, I have less than NO time! Sooooooo, I did the most logical thing ever! Signed up for yet another ATC swap! I am addicted...what can I say! The theme this time is Snowmen! I LOVE snow and I love snowmen! They are the sweetest thing ever! I think it is so much fun that every snowman is different and seems to have his/her own personality! When I saw these cute little snow people at Paper Garden I fell head over heals for them! This image has a faint little heart shape in the snow in front of the snowfolks, but unfortunately it wouldn't fit on this tiny canvas. I used my new Cuttlebug swiss dots folders to emboss the polka dots and then ran my white ink pad over them gently to create snowflakes. I stamped the image, cut it out
and layered it onto the snow background. I added a torn edge paper to make a few inches of snow and then added some 3d snowflakes and a lot of sparkle! I took this photo while the Stickles were still wet-ish! It is much cuter once they dry, but I was losing light and wanted to post this tonight! I will be making a card using this set tomorrow and will share as soon as it is finished!

Have a great night! See you tomorrow! : )

P.S. One more week of soccer and then color me done!!! WooHoo!!!

    Too cute Ann Marie! The swiss dot embossing was brilliant - perfect for snow. I love snowmen too - don't think its possible to have too many!

    Very cute ATC, AnnMarie!! Love the scenic look to it. LOL! I know what you mean about not having time and doing something crazy by comitting myself to something that requires time. Well, I'm glad you're having fun creating those ATCs.
