Sketch Challenge #306

This card was made using SplitcoastStampers Sketch Challenge #306. Lately I have found that I have a much easier time coming up with card ideas when using a basic sketch. When I saw the circle image I immediately thought of a snow globe and although I didn't have a snow globe stamp, the snowman from Friendship Jar Holiday Fillers does remind me of an image you might find in a snow globe. I used some wide ribbon I had left over from last Christmas and some Martha Stewart Glitter on the snowballs. I love the new Pinefeather color and to add a little something to it, I stamped a pattern in Versamark with the Holly Jolly border and a snowflake from Snowflake Serenade with a little stitching around the edges. Thanks for taking a look at my little snowman card!

Cathy........The first thing I said to myself when I looked at your card is, "I love her background paper!" Then, I started reading and realized that I could make the very same thing.....lol I totally didn't recognize that it was PTI stamps! Just beautiful, as always!
