Hi! This card was made for today's Color Combination Challenge: Baja Breeze, Very Vanilla and Kiwi Kiss.
Well, yesterday we had a power/cable/internet outage at our home. A drunk driver hit the poll outside our home. He survived, but could have killed children walking to school. It was a HORRIBLE accident, and took forever to clean up. The ambulance came, but the tow-truck didn't, so the POLICE and FIREFIGHTERS moved the car...Up, INTO MY YARD!!! So...The power company couldn't fix the poll until that was done...What a total mess... No power until early this morning....
Anyway, I'm back today! And, since Speedy the Cat chose this set for YESTERDAY, I figured he wouldn't mind if I used it today! LOL!
The top layer was embossed with Very Vanilla. (It's a very small snow flake print! LOL) The snow and ball on the hat were covered with Liquid Applique found at JoAnns.com.
I covered a GOLD snowflake charm in glitter. Please note: Do NOT BLOW glitter...I look like a FAIRY right now! LOL!
Scraf and Hat were colored with aqua painter and reinkers.

OMGosh, this is so terrific Faith. I love all of the VV, that snowman looks fantastic with his scarf and so debonair tuque. I like the stick arms too. I really like the ribbon treatment with the sparkling star and the cb'ed bg.
I've never cased one of your cards because I didn't think I could do it justice but I think I might give this one a try. LOL
