Snowman and Stardust

This is a very cute snowman card front by Ceredwyn, and is a keeper in my stash for this and many Christmas card making days to come. I printed the sheet supplied onto 200gsm white card. I used some glitter silver, gold peel off strip to attach to the outer edge of the snowman frame, and a blue permanent pen to colour the edges of the edge of the main element. I used padded D.S. tape to attach this to a white spot, pale blue backing sheet, which measures 13.5 x 13cm. I coloured the edges of this backing sheet with the same blue pen. I made the next backing sheet in a deep sky blue which measures 14x 13.5 and coloured the edges of this with the same pen. Before attaching the topper to this backing sheet, with regular D.S. tape, I attached some glitter silver, gold peel off strips,1 mm in from the outer edges of the backing sheet. Using power tape, I then attached this to the card front, which measures, 15cm square. I used one of the sentiments to colour the edges and mount onto, a 5cm x 2cm piece of the blue spotty backing sheet, and colour the edges before attaching it to, a 3 fold concertina method, card which measures 6cm x 5 cm. I used D.S. tape to attach the bow on the inside. I attached the mounted sentiment on the outside of the mountain fold, and then attached the back of the valley fold with D.S. tape to the top of the card. I have made a quick tutorial for this available on my home page. For the insert, I have used a copy of an insert I have made, and used for some of my cards, and added 3 blue coloured peel off snowmen.

A stunning card when completed and so quick and easy, which is sometimes so important, when time is precious in this busy season.
