Dies R Us #159 ~ Winter Wonderland

 Hello crafting friends!  How are your preparations for Christmas coming along?
Being the 15th of the month means that a new challenge begins today at Dies R Us.

Challenge # 159 ~ Winter Wonderland
As I'm sure you already know, I don't like the cold, but do love to see snow scenes on postcards, movies, etc.  I recently purchased a couple of snowman edger dies, so I decided that this challenge was perfect to put them to use :-)





I love the look of these dies against pretty snowy background papers. I cut them out a few times out of different colour cardstock so I could do a bit of paper piecing to make the snowmen stand out more.
On the inside, I thought that this die I purchased a while back, during one of Dies R Us' international die sale, was just the perfect sentiment.  Remember, friends, the best way to know about these awesome special order sales is to subscribe to the store's newsletter.  

Here is the short list of supplies I used to make these cards:


Thank you so much for stopping by today and sharing a little bit of your day with me.  I hope I was able to inspire you to create a project, and  play along with us at the Dies R Us Challenges for your chance to win a gift certificate to the Dies R Us Store.  A new challenge begins on the 1st and 15th of each month. Visit our challenge blog, where my team mates showcase their creations to give you a little more inspiration.  Be sure to follow us on Facebook and Pinterest too.

Before I go, I'd like to remind you that Dies R Us' sister store,  Didi Crafts, is now open. It has warehouses located in the USA and Canada.  It has some products that are the same as Dies R Us, but in addition, it carries international dies,  and other crafty supplies for a variety of crafts.  Go take a peek and be pleasantly surprised!

Till next time,
stay safe and healthy!
