For my card I am using ODBD Snowman, and Sacred Christmas stamp sets. 

I stamped the snowman image and colored with copics.   I added some  different colors of glitter for added dimension and sparkle.   

The sentiment was stamped using a stamp a ma jig for perfect placement.  I used ODBD Spellbinder's Bookmark dies.  I wanted a narrow scalloped edge tag to repeat the scalloped edge frame.  I trimmed off the end. This tag also received some stamped images from the pine needle and pine cone that come in the Sacred Season set.  I just stamped off ranger brushed corduroy ink for a lighter effect.  


I am using the sketch from this week's Stamptacular Sunday Challenge #188.


 As always thanks so much for stopping by!  Enjoy the hop!  Next up is the fabulously talented Chris's blog.
