Snowman in blue and brown

I've been too busy with work this week to do much crafting, so I've had to pass up on a number of challenges that this card would have been perfect for. Winter Wonderland was asking for cards for men/boys, but I have just discovered that the deadline was earlier today.


Materials used:
Stamp - Marianne Design
Cuttlebug embossing folder
Border - Silhouette design
Sentiment and brown/white snowflakes - Silhouette design
Other snowflakes - Marianne Design die
Paper-pieced scarf - DP from my stash (probably DCWV)
Brads - BasicGrey
Brown and blue colouring - my new Spectrum Noir pens
(didn't have any suitable brown cardstock, so I made my own)

I'd like to enter this card into the following challenges:
Christmas Stampin' All Year Long - Non-traditional colours
Christmas Cards All Year Long - 4/9: stamping, textured paper, metal embellishment, stripes
Ooh La La - No backing paper
CHNC - Christmas birthday or Anything goes
Clean and Simple Stamping - Fall To Layout 154 (sketch)
Aud Sentiments - Anything goes
Christmas Card Challenge - Glitter (optional)

    Lovely card - I love blue for Christmas. I was the same as you and missed the deadline for Winter Wonderland (must remember for next time that it closes earlier on Friday). Thanks for joining in my CHNC challenge 34 - hope to see you again soon. x
