It's so great to have you visit The Open Window today!
I am an official stop on the....
....and I am very happy to share my little
creation with you
and
give you the opportunity to win some
fabby blog candy along the way!
Did you get here from Joan's blog?
Hope so! If not, why not pop back to the very
to start fresh...it's the best way to
not miss a thing!
I really enjoyed making this card because I find once
the holidays are over, I rarely use my snowmen stamps.
The winter season is looooong
and snowmen deserve a little shout out once in awhile!
I used Ippity stamps from 'Kissmas & Mistletoe'.
I am proud to say that this wonderful Ippity set is available
to order on my Ippity page here.
I inked up my little guy using Tim Holtz Distress Inks
variegating between two colors.
I did a tight zig-zag stitch on the machine, but quite
a bit of it is covered with the rest of the elements.
I recently purchased 100 yards
of plain white seam binding to do a little
custom-dying, so I had plenty of white to lend here.
I offered this card on display for the
Stamp With Fun Challenge too!
