As a child, we spent many Christmases in the mountains while my Dad was on Fire Watch duty... fantastic being on a rocky mountain peak overlooking valleys and mounts.... and we also spent a lot of time at our local lake, so what better to do than make a snowman from SAND! So here is mine.... a sandy snowman!
Ingredients: Cardstock - Kaszazz, Portacraft; Gold Embossed Paper - UBL; Markers - Promarker Aqua; Glitter Pens; Copper Distressed Stickles; Rhinestones - Kaisercraft; Satin Ribbons...
I coloured the image with an Aquash water pen and Aqua Promarkers in Light Sienna and Sepia. Loved the way it turned out! I added Copper Distressed Stickles to the giftwrapped snowballs, and glitter pen for all the other colour accents. I layered on brown, gold embossed, and brown matt, then wrapped a flat brown ribbon, then a gold-er ribbon, that I had tied a knot on with a shorter ribbon piece.
I'm happy with this card, as it came together quickly.... I think I'll have to make some more! Thanks for peepin'!

Wanted to thank you for visiting my blog, and leaving some love, too! I appreciate it, and I'm glad you're enjoying the freebies. :)
Pauline....this is a hoot! He's GORGEOUS...and I just love the gift-wrapped snowballs...too funny!
I have a pen pal in Australia and I always enjoy receiving the Santa cards with him dressed in a bathing suit she sends me each year to Michigan as we have freezing temperatures here.
Love your sandy snowman Pauline! no snowman for me here either :(
