Glitter Snowman Birthday Card


I have to take a break from my personal challenge of using the SEI Corinne 6 x 6 paper pack. I need to get my Valentine's Day cards & Spring Workshops for the store designed by the end of this weekend. So, keep an eye out. I have at least two more card designs before my personal challenge is complete.

I had a lot of fun making this card. One, I used a stamp that is normally used for Christmas cards to make a Birthday card. Two, most of this card was made from the leftover pieces from my January Calendar Page. Three, it was made for a very good friend of mine who loves glitz. Four, I normally have a very difficult time with adding glitz to my projects, but this time it turned out quite well....if I do say so myself.

The patterned papers are from BoBunny Snowfall Cut Outs 12 x 12 paper, BoBunny Snowfall 6 x 6 paper pad and Basic Grey Little Black Dress 6 x 6 paper pad. The cardstock is Bazzill Truffle and the Sky Blue Glitter paper is from Best Creations Inc.

The tools I used are the Petite Scalloped Ovals Large, Petite Ovals Small & Petite Ovals Large Nestabilities and one of Bazzill's Stitchz Border Templates.

To embellish the card, I used Turquoise & Copper Stickles and We R Memory Keepers Mermaid Glitter Fancy Floss.

The snowman stamp is from Kraftin' Kimmie - A Cup of Cozy Wishes!, the sentiment on the front of the card is from CC Designs Best Birthday Wishes stamp set, the "Happy" on the inside of the card is from CC Designs Big Words stamp set and the "Birthday" is from CC Designs Handy Additions stamp set.

Copic Markers used: B95, B97, BG72, BG78, C00, E23, E57 & E59.

  4. I really like this card. You always do such a nice job on the insides too that I am beginning to be inspired - perhaps I'll try that too. Great use of glitter too - nice and subtle!
