Special Snowman

I am a sucker for snowmen! I love them all. Even though I don't like the coldness Winter brings, I do enjoy the freshly fallen snow, and snowmen!!

This adorable stamp is from C.C. Designs called Snowman with Bird by a new artist, Rustic Sugar. I stamped him with My Favorite Things black hybrid ink onto the smooth side of some water color paper. Then water colored him with various Distress inks.

I die cut him out with a square die, then used a Your Next Stamp stitching line die around the edges. Created a rectangle mat that I sponged with ink, and glued the panel together. I stamped the sentiment from the Happy Everything set by C.C. Designs and made it into a banner and attatched it with a mini paper clip.

The background paper is retired from SU! and the velvet ribbon at the bottom. I'm following along with this week's sketch challenge at Splitcoast Stampers.

And I also wanted to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving! A lot of people travel to be with family this time of year, luckily I don't have to go far. I am thankful everyday for all that I have, whether it be family, safety, or material things. I try to remind myself that every day, no matter if it's a good or bad day. Thank you to everyone who visits and reads my blog posts, I enjoy sharing my creations.
