todays inspiration site is Leif shop... I chose as my inspiration these chambray cocktail napkins ... I stamped and coloured image and then fussy cut it...I then stamped my trees on whisper white, sponged the sky and then used white acrylic paint for the snow...(I did mess up in a few places)...I then used die cut to cut opening in another piece of paper, used ef on it and added stickles to snowflakes... I then added foam tape to back and placed on image making sure snowmans cap came out of the box....I admit, I had seen a card something like this a long time ago but do not know who posted it....
Thanks for taking a peek... Hope you like it...

So cute......and the light blue that inspired this card is the perfect backdrop for the snowman and trees!

Beautiful ef, sparkles and a Snowman......just makes this a real treat of a Christmas card, Alice! I love the way you placed the snowman with the trees as a bg and the die-cut opening! Super cute~

Marie-Alice, your card has a wonderful feeling of a snowglobe(altho' I know it isn't). Love the little window into a winter scene and all the glistening snowflakes on the framing panel.

I can't believe you cut out those tiny arms!! But that and the out of the box hat are my favorite features of this (although I love the rest of the card, too)...fabulous card!
