HOW will YOU be inspired this month -- colors, theme, shapes, patterns? I was inspired by the colors in the inspiration photo along with the trees, snowmen and winter theme in this month's FUN photo! The snowmen were created back in 2014 by Kristen Swain - you can get the directions for the sock snowmen HERE! (CLICK on the photos for close up views):
This was a FUN card to make - I love the mixy matchy colors inspired by this month's board!
These sweet snow people dressed in their brightly colored hats and scarves make me giggle!
I used these products from the Paper Sweeties boutique to create this card:
Winter Mix Sequins
Cotton Candy Sequins
Snow Friends
Snow Friends Sweet Cuts
Deck the Halls
Merry and Bright Sweet Cuts
