I wonder how many stitched details there are on this card LOL, I hit all the stitchy goodness from the Cold Hands, Warm Heart release like a snow storm! We’ve got those fabulous Stitched Slope and Hills in action again and to coordinate there’s the Bundle of Stitched Shapes too :D
But before we get to those lets talk about that cute snowman! He’s from the Build a Snowman stamp set with matching Snowman Parts dies. This stamp and die set are so flexible; each snowman part comes separately so you can stamp, cut and assemble to your heart’s content! So many possibilities, but I decided I really wanted to colour that string of lights (even that has its own die), a scarf stamped in Lipstick Red and glittered to look frosty, a Sunshine carrot nose and eyes with a touch of black enamel accents to bring them to life :D Finally popped onto this guy’s arm is a little bird from the set which I stamped as a robin in Khaki and Lipstick Red inks with a touch more enamel accents for the eye.
Now back to those stitches! The snowy banks are a couple of the Stitched Slope and Hills cut from Neenah solar white and layered to give a base for the snowman. Then the background and the sentiment banner are both from the Bundle of Stitched Shapes set. The background panel has a strip of patterned paper down one side and the white area is accented with snowflakes from the Build A Snowman set stamped in Sea Glass. Then overlaid the panel is the stitched banner with sentiment stamped in Black and more Sea Glass snowflake accents :D
Phew, there is so much going on in this card to try and get it all down into words LOL. I hope you are enjoying the Cold Hands, Warm Heart release as much as I am :D
