CardzTV Stamps Challenge #21 "I'm Dreaming of a White Christmas!"

If you are looking for the Digi Haven Challenge "Wreaths and/or Ornaments", click here. (after 5 am EST)

"I'm Dreaming of a White Christmas!" is the theme for the CardzTV Stamp Challenge this week. Create a card, layout or craft project for Christmas with snow, snowflakes or a snowman. Challenge will run from Dec 14th to Dec 20th. Mary at CardzTV will have a set of her stamps for the winner.

This is my project:

Finished Card: 4 1/4" x 5 1/2"

Materials:
Cardstock: White, Two Shades of Purple, Light Teal and Patterned Vellum
Cricut Cartridges Winter Woodland Snowman, page 47 (Base, Base Shift, Layers Base and Shadow/Blackout Base)
CardzTV with Mary Clear Stamps Holly Jolly, ""Let It Snow!"
Martha Stewart Punch Around the Page Combo, Snowflake from Corner Punch
Black Pigment Ink
Queen and Co Pearls Lavender, 4 Medium and 6 Small
Light Blue Pom Pom
Mounting Tape

I really liked the snowflake vellum and thought the blue and purple was pretty. The snowman and  flakes are single mounted.

I'm really not a fan of (real) snow, the older I get. Too cold for me and I don't ski or snowboard.

This is the last challenge for the stamp design team for this year. (Got to get ready for the holidays!) Enjoy the challenge and maybe you will win one of Mary's stamps (your choice). Good luck.

Have a wonderful holiday! Check back for the next challenge in Jan.

Thanks for stopping by. Please leave a comment.
