In The Meadow......


In the meadow.....we won't be building a snowman!  However, I can make one on a card and I'm afraid that's the closest I'll get to it.  It's cold here (for our part of Texas) but of course no snow is involved at all.  For all of you that do have snow though - go build a snowman!

This cute little guy can be found at From the Heart for their progressive challenge.  If you played along last month you received this one for free this month.  I'll also enter this in their weekly challenge which is a sketch with a (color) twist.   See the photo below.

I colored him with Copics and then glittered up the "fur" on his hat.  The embossing in the background was done with a Sheena Douglas embossing folder.  A few sequins were added for fun along with the twine and patterned paper.



Thanks for stopping by........

    I am waiting for the arrival of snow any minute now, but they say just a dusting. This guy is cute as anything and I do love the embossed folder in the background. Fantastic coloring job. Enjoy your coll day.

    Awwww, I am loving this little snowman!!! I've got the snow, but can't build a snowman. To fluffy! Maybe our next snow will be a wet one, just right for building a cute snowman. Great card my friend! Hugs, Brenda

    It's been unbearably cold here...a bit of snow too but not enough to build a snowman yet.

    Such a cute snowman card. Yes, we have snow...and it's still on the ground, but I don't think it's that deep to make a snowman...but, for me, it too COLD to even be out
