Snowgirl Scene :-)

Hello and welcome back, my crafting friends.  Winter made a very sudden appearance here in my neck of the woods, so it's been the perfect weather to stay indoors and catch up on Christmas cards :-) Can't wait for next week when the temperatures are due to get back into the 70's deg F (20 deg C). More my idea of winter :-)
I have a winter scene with a snow girl to share with you today.
Does this snow girl look familiar?  Yes, it is indeed the snowman from the Christmas Kitsch cartridge :-), but I wanted a snow girl, so I cut off his top hat, and added a Santa hat instead :-) Made all her accessories in pink and voila, one snow girl :-)  Isn't she cute?  I have a very special little girl in mind for this card :-)
List of supplies:
Tree ~ Pine Tree Forest - Cottage Cutz Dies
Bird house ~ Bird Houses - Impression Obsession Dies
Birds ~ Small Flying Birds - Impression Obsession Dies
Sprigs of green ~ MS punch
Snowbanks ~ Pieces of white cardstock, torn by hand, put through Wave Crimper
Background snowfall cardstock ~  Kiwi Embroidery Papers

Here is the inside of my card. I used the same sprigs of green and the same birds as I used on the outside of the card. The sentiment is a stamp by Great Impression Stamps.

Thank you for stopping by today. I hope you enjoyed my card as much as I enjoyed making it :-)

I will be entering this card in a few challenges but I will have to come back and edit this post because I'm not sure what challenges are available yet.  This is one of my New Year resolutions, :-), to enter more challenges, but I thought I would start now :-)


Till next time,
Stay warm!

  4. What a clever way to transform the snowman Lena, I love the idea of adding your own accessories to create a snowgirl! The sentiment you added in the middle of the card is fabulous and I love the extra die cuts you added to make the snowy scene. Well done!
    Cheers,
