For this card, I started with the products I wanted to use: the snowman stamp set and the Stitched Hillside border die from Lawn Fawn. Naturally I would love to create a scene. So I first created the snowbanks with the die, then added the snowman on it. The snowman told me in a very sad voice that he was very lonely so I wanted to add some more to it. I tried various things - trees next to him, a bird, another snowman but nothing seem to cheer him up.
Finally I tried to add some snowflakes in the background and bingo! That's exactly what the snowman wanted. With the snowflakes the card looks a lot more lively. The snowman is happy now!
I could have never imagined that this card could take me so long to finish. It was a fun process nonetheless and I hope the card recipient will like it.
