Snowy in Blue

Hi there.  I'm so glad you stopped by!


My dear friend Hideko is hosting the CAS Christmas Challenge

My favorite snowman stamp got dusted off.  Yay!

I stamped him on Tim Holtz Watercolor paper since it's the whitest
watercolor paper that I have.  The coloring was done with
Distress Markers swiped on a palette and picked up with a waterbrush.

Snowy has shimmer on the pom pom and brim of his hat!

There's still a couple days left for this challenge if you want to 
take a snowman over and join in! There are lots of cute snowmen in the
gallery to lend inspiration!

I love Snowy Bonnie and the white on white is perfect for the background with the snow slopes, falling snow and foliage, and the coordinating blue for the scarf, hat and sentiment look great. x

He is such a chubby little cutie isn't he and I love the way you set him off with that white on white background. Vicky x

Snowy is one of my favorites too, Bonnie, but I didn't bring him with me. I love how you planted him in a snowdrift and with the embossed snow falling behind.

He is adorable and wearing my favorite color. That pom-pom on top of his hat makes me smile.

Great job watercoloring him, Bonnie. I love that his scarf and hat look fuzzy! Great effect. I always love the texture you add to your background, something I never think to do. What a fun card.

Snowy is so adorable, Bonnie, especially with the shimmery pom pom and brim of his hat! You created a perfect white-on-white scene for him. The color matching blue sentiment is a really nice touch. So happy to see your snowman card in the CAS Christmas galley, my friend! Thank you! Hideko xx

Love that snowman! So cute in the blue hat and scarf (my favourite colour). Love the white branch and dry embossing behind him.

So cute! Love the embossed background with the die cut.

I have loved this little guy since I first saw him and of course finally broke down and got him a while back. Your card is adorable Bonnie! I love background and the die you used peeking out from behind this cutie. Love the shimmer and sparkle on his pom pom and fir trim as well as his blue scarf. He is definitely looking frosty! Hugs, Brenda

Oh, wow, I think this must be the world's most popular snowman and he looks absolutely adorable on your card! He's an endearing character and I love the blue and white simplicity. So sweet, Bonnie!

P.S. Because of your adorable Snowy snowman card...I now own this adorable set:-) I have loved this stamp image for years, but because it was wood mounted I always decided not to get it...but you gave me the creative push...thank you, my friend. Love and Hugs...Nancy
