I stamped part of the snowman from Mark's Finest Papers "Holly Jolly Greetings", added Merry Christmas (after rounding the image) which comes from a set to be released next week called "Poinsettia Blooms" and then used my Karen Foster alphabets to add Laynee's name. I used the negative "stars" from my MS snowflake punch to make my "snow". My pinks aren't showing true colors, but, I love how this turned out and Laynee's Christmas card is now done.
Moral to the story: Don't give up too quickly....sometimes, you see something you might have missed otherwise!!!

So sweet! I'm a big snowman fan and this is darling! Your GD will love it! The texture is great (love the fur on the hat) and your snow borders are perfect!

I am soooo glad you did come back and look....great job with the inspiration plate. Personalizing the card as well is a loving touch. I like the different colors for Christmas...TFS..:0)

This is so sweet, and you are right to never give up! I wanted to give up on this one, too! This turned out wonderfully and and I love how you interpreted the inspiration piece.
