This is day 4 of the Clear Dollar Stamps Sneak Peeks and I am showcasing the Snowman Wishes stamp set which will be released on November 1. I just can't get enough of these cute little snowmen!!! The It's Snowing Wheel was used to stamp the background snowflakes with Bashful Blue onto Vanilla Shimmery cs. The trees were stamped with Memento Brown and colored with a copic marker. The snowmen and the little bird were stamped on Whisper White with Memento Black twice...one set was cut out, colored with copics, glittered up, and attached to the scene with dimensionals. The snow is a scrap of torn designer paper glued to the cardstock and distressed a little with Close to Cocoa. The image layer and the matting layers were distressed with a distressing tool and the edges were sponged with Close to Cocoa, also. The sentiment layer was stamped like the main image with the It's Snowing Wheel, the tree was stamped with Memento Brown turned on it's side to look like a branch, and the little bird was stamped with Memento Black. The clip was from We R Memory Keepers and the background oval layers were cutout with the large oval Nesties. The Basic Grey Figgy Pudding background paper was sewed around the edges for a little texture and interest, the corners were punched with the Tag Corner Punch from SU!, and the fiber came from my stamping buddy, Teresa. TFL and visit my blog, Stamping With A Passion! to see all my sneak peeks!!

I love that although they are small, the little snowmen still each have their own cute personality! Your use of accessories really jazzes up the entire card and takes it to the next level. And I love the Clear Dollar Stamp line of products. Haven't tried the wheel yet though - I guess because it doesn't have an inker.
