How to build a Snowman in July…..

Time for a bit more Christmas showcasing today, and here is a snowman that I built early in July….who still hasn't melted.  :-)

This cheerful chap is from the Crafters Companion Nordic Christmas range and, since I have a soft spot for all things snowy, I couldn't resist making him in to a card.

The papers lovely backing papers are from the Nordic CD and they are quite bright so I thought I would use green card to mat with, and I then coloured the snowman's scarf in green to pull everything together.

The sentiment that you see is also from the stamp set and all the dottiness that you see was created using some coloured stamp pads and my dotty stubby stamp which comes from Stamp Addicts.

Finally, I wanted some dangly snow flakes and these have been cut from my Crafters Companion snowflake dies and then glittered for that extra bit of sparkle.

So finally, before I go, here are some challenges that I would like to enter:
