poppystamps Nordic Happy Snowman Card…

Hi everyone!  I know most of us love snowman!  It seems like this cutie should have a name, oh it does!  Happy!

I saw a card made with this sketch and thought it’d work so well with the new Memory Box 6×6 paper pads, Yuletide Cheer and Yuletide Plaid!  I love these pads!  Good thing! lol  24 double sided papers, 12 designs, 2 of each.

I started by die cutting, coloring with Copics and piecing  ‘Happy’ together.  Do you have the R07 Copic marker?  It is one of my favorite reds ever!  If you remember the Basic Gray paper line for Christmas, E07 matched it perfectly!

I also colored the background for Let it Snow with E07 also.

I diecut the Memory Box Nested Globe die in white and the Nested Globe Bases die in white and colored the base with E07 and E09.

The plaid paper is cut 4 in. x 5 ¼ in. and the banner is 2 ¼ x 5 ½ in.  I cut the fishtail end with a scissors. Then I wrapped gold thread around it and tied a box before I glued it to the plaid panel.

That’s about it!  I used my favorite thin mounting foam tape to adhere ‘Happy’ to the globe.

The green Copics I used are G24 and YG99.

I almost wished for snow this week! It was so muggy and hot here in Iowa.  Next week looks more like Fall temperatures.  whew.  So thankful for air conditioning!  I’ve been riding my bike more but these temps put a halt to that.  Maybe this coming week and I can get back to it.

Thank you for stopping by!  I love hearing from you and appreciate your encouraging words!  I still haven’t counted how many Christmas cards I have made.  One of these days I’m gonna say post in the comments how many you have! lol  I think it’d be fun to see and we can encourage each other!  I have birthday cards to throw in the mix this week.  How’d it get to be Sept. 21st anyway! Crazy!  ttul!
