This was done inspired by this cute card in Judi's gallery seen here. I loved that big gingham bow and the colors and the glittered body to the snowman so, first change was to switch from a square card to a rectangle, and I did forget a few layers and instead of glittering the body I used some wink of stella on the halo and wings. wanting to keep this a little rustic, I picked up this kraft piece that has been being altered and layered upon for a while now. ( it was originally a stamped plaid on kraft, then it was watercolored, then I needed a piece to practice flicking watered down acrylic paint on... and so forth) so, it seemed to suit this guy. I did tie a knot in the ribbon instead of a bow and added a little stringy bow to that. The halo is up on thicker pop dots than the snowman. Judi, I hope you like this and enjoy your week. tfl.

What a wonderful, country, Christmas card! I love the cute image but especially like that fab background of greens and blues against the kraft. The music is the perfect touch along with the checkered ribbon. Just delightful !! I think I may have to case you!

I love the background paired with the pattern paper. He is a little cutie!

love the country theme of this card- with the brown gingham ribbon- and that cute snowman! Great combo. Let's hope for some cooler air here in the West!
