This week's Free for All Challenge to use Scallops on our cards fits perfectly with this batch of Christmas cards that I finally managed to get finished and glued together.
I started the colouring on these snowmen on a camping trip in July (DH even picked up the markers and coloured in parts of these little fellas!)....but since then other things have continuously interrupted my efforts to finish the cards. Like snowflakes, each one of these snowmen is unique!
These cards also fit the Ways to Use It challenge this week which is to get a head-start on the holidays.
The snowman is from a set by Darcies. Used a SU wheel stamp (which I have unmounted - I wonder why I waited so long to do that) for the background and clear-embossed. Added some Dazzling Diamonds; dry-embossed the white layer with Divine Swirls and punched the edge with an EK Success Scalloped edge punch.
Another dozen in the Christmas Card box!
PT: 1 punch - but I used it 3x per card x 12 cards!

O.K., I know you made these just for me and I want them all. LOL I LOVE snowmen and birds, Izzy. And, just look at that wonderful embossed bg. You are really rolling on these Christmas cards. The scallop is gorgeous, too. These just couldn't be any more adorable. Let's reverse things and you send me that punch!!
