Does anyone else listen to Christmas music in July? I Love it. It helps to calm me down and just puts joy in my heart. So as I was listening I decided to make this lovely card for the Christmas Card Challenge it's such a great blog to help get those Christmas cards ready by Dec. The inspiration photo they gave us this week↓
Yay for snowmen. I have had this single stamp for quite some time. In fact back when our kids still lived at home. My son mentioned that I should color the little mouse ears a soft pink, and so I did, and have been doing that ever since then. I used the sketch from the challenge at: Sunday Stamps. My card is a 5x5 inch square. I stamped the black base with snowflakes and then used candy cane stripe washi tape. for the banners. I stick it on white paper first so that it looks better. Then just cut it out and glue it down. I used an embossing folder behind the snowman, and to "tie" it all together I strung two of the cutest ever jingle bells to the banners on top.
Thank you for stopping by. Hope you take a look around at my other cards too. Perhaps you can follow me here on my blog or on pinterest.
Keep Smiling and Keep Stamping
