Scraptastic Mondays Challenge #5



Hello everyone! It's time for a new challenge at Scraptastic Mondays! This time the challenge is to create a card or project with a snowman or snowflake with a Winter Wonderland theme. Stephanie from Whimsical Desgins has generously donated her Snow Much Fun stamp set for the winner of this challenge. There will also be a second place winner picked at random for 3 of Cindy's AWESOME digis! Check them out in her store HERE.
I LOVE the way this card turned out! This is one of my FAVORITE of Cindy's digis. It's called Snowman With Wreath. I colored it with colored pencils and added Stickles to the leaves, mittens, and dots to the bow. I mounted it to a mat cut from Love You A Latte. The banner and font was cut from Birthday Bash and I added gems to the corners. I cut the snowflake from Winter Lace and added a gem to this as well. To finish I tied a bow and embossed the background with the Cuttlebug Snowflakes folder. I also finished the inside with matching paper and stamped the sentiment from Whimsical Designs Whimsical Fun Vol. 1 stamp set.
I hope you all like my card and please check out what the other amazingly talented DT has to show you. I can't wait to see what you will create! Have a great day!

    Your card is gorgeous. I had a sneak peek at it last week and LOVED it right away. Nice soft colors, and like the the sparkle. It is so surreal seeing my stamps...kinda takes me back for a minute. LOVE how you used this sentiment inside your card. :)

    Eeek! Do you see how gorgeous this is? :o) One of my favorite things ever is embossed white, especially for winter.. but then you added a cute sparkly/ruffly banner, beautiful ribbon, and that sweet-as-a-button digi! As always, I love your project. :o) This card is stunning and whimsical! And oh so sparkly. Gorgeous work, Gigi. :o)

    Hugs and blessings!
