So, here again we have another great release from Emma. I'm sad I didn't get back on MCT Design Team, but Emma has invited me to guest design on this release.

So here is my project I made.

I stamped the cute little snowman onto patterned paper and cut out by hand. Same with the hat and scarf. 

I then stamped the snowman again onto the white background so I knew where to place him, plus his arms could not be cut out. I then stamped the arms so they would show when I attached the element. I hand cut two pieces of white to look like snow drifts and inked the edges a bit with a very light blue ink. Also stamped the snow falling in the background. 

I added some foam tape to the back and attached the snowman into place. I stamped the sentiment and then layered this piece onto some blue cardstock. 

For the card base I used the 3x3 Trifold Card Die. However, I folded it in half instead. Then, I cut it again in the dotted paper and attached it up a bit from the white edge and trimmed it off at the top, right at the fold. Then I wrapped some hemp cord around and tied into a small bow. I then added the element to the front of the card.

For the snowflake, I cut it out six times and glued them all together to get  more of a chipboard feel to it. I covered the front of it with Wink of Stella clear glitter brush, which gave it a nice sparkle. I glued it to the edge of the element. I did the same thing for the snowflake on the envelope. 

I measured my card and use my envelope punch board from We Are Memory Keepers. I found the coordinating size and followed the directions for making an envelope. For the tag on the front, I stamped my sentiment, and hand cut the end into a flag. I glued it down and added the snowflake to the end. This card measures approximately 3 x 4.

Here's the products I used in this project.
