I used this week's sketch for the card. The background is made with Lace Snowflakes with an assist from a little snowflake stamp in the Snow Buddies set, all clear embossed. Then I sponged three colors of Distress Oxide inks to created that snowy background for this happy snowgirl.
I decided it was time to make a snowgirl - see her cute hat? After stamping her, I followed the tutorial to have her head and that cute little tree popping up out of the circle. I used SU markers to color the hat in order to get the turquoise flower, and markers for the tree as well. I heat embossed the sentiment. Both the circle and the sentiment are popped up on fun foam.
Thanks for looking!

Oh Catherine, I smiled as soon as I saw your gorgeous snowgirl card (I love that - a snow girl - it is fabulous!). Your sentiment could not be more perfect for the wonderful feeling this gorgeous card evokes. I love these beautifully embossed snowflakes and all the gorgeous sponging you did around them. You achieved a wonderful depth of color in this magnificent bg. This week's card sketch is so perfect for this card. I love how your snowgirl is stamped and partially cut out- how cool! You have made a wonderful card for the challenges Catherine- just wonderful! ~Karen.
