Holiday Magic

Happy Saturday everyone!

Today is the start of a new challenge at House of Cards and this month we have a wonderful sketch for you to follow... 
and since I'm on the Cute & Fun team I thought this adorable snowman image from Deep Red Stamps would be perfect! :) 
It's stamped with Memento Black ink, colored with Copics and cut out with a MFT Stitched Circle die. The sentiment is a $1 stamp from Michaels, the papers are from Pebbels- The American Collection and I used a MFT die for the photo corners. I cut the snowflakes out with a CB die, added some Glamour dust and a silver sequin to finish them off.

I hope you can join us and be sure to stop by the challenge blog... Mynn has a fabulous 'Faux Quilting' tutorial to show you!

Thanks so much for stopping by and enjoy the rest of your weekend!
