Today Robins Challenge theme is Christmas in July.
Which is perfect for me, because I wanted to show off my (Building a Snowman) that Anita (Snietje) sent me in my Get Well Card. Thanks so much Anita, you know I love snowmen and this one is so cute.
This is more of a Winter Card, but I will use it for a Christmas card.
The background I used a stipple brush and Acrylic white paint to look like snow falling. Then added some Stickles glitter, but doesnât show up in the photo.
The Snowman Die was sprayed with Shimmer Frost spray. IRL it has a lot of sparkle.
Cut an oval frame and embossed with dots EF, also to look like snow.
Last added two snowflakes from my stash.
Anita, hope you like how I used your gift. TFL

Both your dot ef and that fabulous blue bg create a wonderful feeling of falling snow. This is such a happy winter scene. Great idea to add the 2 die cut snowflakes. What a pretty card, Carolyn.

I'm so happy to see you are able to craft a bit and I love how you've used this die cut, I'm impressed by your background which makes this die cut really pop!! Take care Carolyn!!

Love the stippled snow and the sparkle (the bit that I can see). Beautiful card. That Snietje is so sweet isn't she? I hope you're getting better and better each day!
