Winter Birthday Card

It's still winter and several challenges have themes of snowmen, snow, and winter celebrations.  This card looks simple, although it did take a bit of work, and I like how it came out.

The snowman was cut from Cricut's A Quilted Christmas; the  Birthday sign was cut from the Phrases cartridge and modified slightly so it would look like it was flying from the pole (toothpick).  The large snowflakes are from a Martha Stewart punch and they are decorated with some rhinestones and diamond stickles.  The stickles also add touches to the snow.  The background paper is a leftover from some Christmas paper.

I am entering this little guy in the following challenges:
Cupcake Inspirations - snowmen
Bitten By The Bug 2 - Frosty the Snowman
Whimsical Wednesday at Whimsical Designs- Winter Wonderland - Sparkle and 1 or more snowflakes
Crafts with Cutters at My Papercrafting - Chilly Celebration

Happy Creating.

Winter Friends

Hello.  I hope everyone enjoyed bringing in the New Year and that it will be filled with blessings for all of you.

This card was made to be entered in a number of challenges.  I love it!

I was at AC Moore's to buy paper and this stamp was on the Christmas clearance shelf.  It's so cute I couldn't pass it up, and now I had a chance to use it.  There are stickles on the hats and ground snow which add just the right touch of sparkle.

I am entering it in:
Anything Goes Challenge - theme 'Just Friends'
Little Scrap Pieces - theme 'Winter'
Pause, Dream, Enjoy - theme 'Anything Goes'
Try It On Tuesday - theme  'New Stash'
