Merry Christmas

I decided to make a second card for Joan's Garden Challenge #38. The rules are *Create a card showing your favorite winter pastime (i.e. making a snowman, going for a sleigh ride, going skiing, ect.) *Use black embossing. *Use a frame.*Create something that is dimensional. Okay it doesn't actually show building a snow man but I do like watching cardinals in the winter so decided to go with this stamp from Heartfelt Creations called Snowmen Melt Your Heart. I have to admit that snowmen stamps will get me just about every time.lol. I made my frame with two Spellbinder dies the Labels Sixteen and Labels Fifteen and while I was cutting out the snowman, I had just tossed the frame down and decided that I liked it that way so left it. I got my order today from Joan's, the Wreath Strip Border Die from Cheery Lynn. I cut it out of varigated paper so that it would look like snow but the effect is really lost in this picture. I added red liquid pearls in the center of the leaf strip dies. Black embossed the Merry Christmas. Thanks for stopping by. Sharon
