Flourishes Snowy Delights Challenge




It sparkles, shines and glistens on the landscape. Let's capture some of that snowy sparkle on our cards and creations. Use glitter, Flower Soft or any kind of bling that offers up a snowy feel. FLLCNOV11. Deadline is November 11th at 5 PM Eastern.

It's that time again! Time for Flourishes per-release challenge! I decided to bring out this sweet snowman from the Warm Winter Wishes set.


 I stamped the image on Classic White card stock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored it with these Copic collections:








My sweet snowflake was first cut out with an older Spellbinders Create a Snowflake die and my Grand Calibur machine, run through my sticker maker, and coated with fine iridescent glitter.
 

I also added some sparkle to the snowman himself with a Clear Spica Glitter Pen. Then a little stitching, some baker's twine and a button, and it was done!

So, that's it for me. Be sure to take a look at what the rest of the design team has for you.
Thanks so much for stopping by!
