New MFP Release Snowman Country!

Hello, today's card features the new Set from Mark's Finest Papers, called "Snowman Country'. There are 6 new sets this month, and they are all available for purchase now at the store!

This is also the last day of the Blog Hop, all you have to do is leave a comment on participating Design Team Members Blogs for your chance to win, a new stamp set from next months release! You can find the whole hopping list on Mark's Finest Papers Blog!

So my card today is a little out of the ordinary for me! First it's big and square, well almost, it was supposed to be 5.5" square, but I cut it wrong...so it's 5.5 x 5.25"!

And somewhere in my head, I got the idea to use a giant glittery snowflake! It's very sparkly!

The cardstock is old olive and pretty in pink, with dp from Basic Greys Eskimo Kisses. The snowflake was made with a Petaloo glitter sheet. This stuff is kind of interesting, it's very pliable, like material?

The cute little snowman was stamped onto white with memento rich cocoa and coloured with copics.

I finished it off with some ribbon from Michael's Christmas section and a button, I also added a pearl to the center of the snowflake, and some at the top to balance it!

Thanks for stopping by, have a great day!
