Hi Friends.....My sis is still visiting and we're having a super time. We went shopping yesterday (all day) and I found this adorable snowman image at the scrapbook store. I couldn't wait to use it and sure enough not when I found the Merry Monday Christmas Card Club Challenge #76 this week to use a snowman. If you know me very well, you know a snowman is my FAVORITE image to work with. I placed him so it looks as if he is looking up at the Christmas tree and about to adorn it with a star topper.
I colored him with Copics, bought some tinsel to put around his fun hat and I added glossy accents to the ornaments. The embossing folder is Spellbinders M Bossabilities Holiday Magic. Rest of recipe is below.
My sketch is from a card I cased for the Featured Stamper this week on Splitcoaststampers. The stamper is Curt aka indycurt and this is the card I cased.
Splitcoaststampers also has a monthly Christmas challenge for Fan Club members. This month's theme is Silver Bells.....use silver, bells, or both. You may use silver cord, silver embossing, silver anything. My silver is the tinsel.

Love this snowman and your card! It's simple but eye grabbing and love your colors too! Great job! :0)
Love that snowman (one of my favorites is also snowmen). I see and your sister are still out helping our economy in a very big way. LOL I'm still glad I did not contribute to this delinquency. LOL Enjoy your time with your sister.
Fabulous Christmas card Brenda!! I love the embossing and the pop of color from the pretty dotted dps. Your little snowman image was a real score, he is darling! Always fun to have an enabling sis ;)
What a wonderful card. I love the snowman and the added sparkle. The layout is awesome and I love the embossing.
I know how much you love snowmen, Benzi. :) He's a cutie, and I love the tinsel you sprinkled on his hat. Is that the Martha Stewart glitter that you ooohed over a couple years back?
Om Gosh - this is soooo cute. Love the papers and totally adore the image I would fight Pamzi for this one any day! Darling image - perfect card! Hugz!
Brenda, bei dir sehe ich immer die schönsten Schneemänner auf den Karten. Wie du alles so arrangierst, sieht einfach zauberhaft aus, auch diese Karte ist wunderschön gemacht.
♥ Grüße, Anja
