Color Challenge: Highland Heather, Seaside Spray, Pool Party with bling for dessert. This is the last week for the bonus theme of Christmas in July.
I decided to go whimsical this week with these cute snowmen friends using these beautiful, non-traditional Christmas colors. On the front of the card base, I cut off 1.5" from the right and I attached a white embossed panel on the inside. I stamped the sentiment in black on the card front and also some snowflakes with VersaMark. The image was colored with markers in the challenge colors and then I added Wink of Stella to the snow base and snowball gift. To keep within the challenge colors, I gave the snowmen white carrot noses with a gel pen. I matted the image on Heather and glued it on with the right side hanging off the trimmed card front. When the card is closed, the image panel looks centered. I finished up with some tiny light blue rhinestones among the snowflakes for dessert. I really like these mini gems as they add sparkle but do not cause problems with mailing. Fun card to make. I hope you have a chance to use this lovely color combo. It's snow pretty! Thanks for looking.

Adorable snowmen celebrating the season! I love the fancy cut, the embossed panel for texture and dimension, and kudos for not introducing orange noses into the scene! Love your pun in the description, too!

This fancy fold is a great way to provide a clean and simple look for the colours. I love the embossed panel on the right to offset the stamped snowflakes. Great bling with the blue rhinestones.
