Snowman


This is the sketch from Sketch Saturday a few weeks ago I really thought it was unusual and wanted to give it a go but after everything was well and truly stuck I now think my LOTV Snowman should be on the otherside of the card.
So a little disappointed how it looks but overall I think the layout works except my Snownman. The papers are some leftovers and it was touch and go whether I had enough.
The snowflakes border are from Joy and I used a single snowflake from Joy to overlap the border one. I've kept it fairly simple but it doesn't look it.
All finished with glamour dust and lots of it.
Well today its going to be fairly busy so apart from unpacking and putting some finishing touches like flowersoft to a card don't think I'm going to have time to make an actual card. Also my daughter has convince me that I need to do her French Knots on her Cross Stitch because I should be better than hers and I'm pretty sure I'm knot!
But life should return to normal next week although I shall be going to Ally Pally but its looking like its going to be Sunday cos my Friend could be made prisoner in her home due to the Cycling race and road closures on Saturday.

Super card Debby. Love the those paper and the snowman image.
Enjoy Ally Pally. I spent my youth there - up to six nights week - in the roller skating rink. Have only been to the craft show there a few times but will try to make it again one day.

Gorgeous card Debby, I think you're being hypercritical about your snowman, though that said I'm the same - I've got a thing about images "looking" to the right, most look to the left (thank goodness for digis so I can flip 'em around, lol) I love your snowflakes, and all that glitter, yum!

scrappymo! said...

Great colours and great design. Love the cute snowman. I can see what you mean about switching him to the right...usually I think of these things after everything is glued down and then promptly bend or tear the card trying to switch it...
I would leave it as it is still a beautiful card as is!
