I am going to a Christmas shoebox swap and decided to do a giftcard holder and take along samples of different types. This is a sample guy that I saw while browsing the gallery. Here is Holly's that I cased: ~Frosty Gift Card Holders~ by Toy at Splitcoaststampers She gives some good explanations as to the "how to" so I'll let you check out the deets there if you'd like to. I was inspired by Anna Wight's crafting last week and used her snowflake design for his hat. You can find lots of her wonderful samples here: http://sweetmissdaisy.typepad.com/

Fabulous! You are so clever and just too talented. What stamper wouldnt want to receive this. I love how you used your die to create the bottom half. You're totally amazing, Michelle.

LOVE this!!!
You chose perfect embellishments for this...
the ribbon - perfect.
the bird - perfect.
the twig punch for the bird to sit on - perfect.
And I must say, your crystal snowflake, also PERFECT!!

There is so much cuteness to behold, I can barely type! Love the brim of his hat and the awesome embellies! Now you need to bring this for Buffalo, too, so I can bring him home from the swap ;)
