Here are a few little tips used on creating this card . . .

To give my snowman some color, I spotted a scrap piece of 'clouds' background panel in my scrap box and decided to use it as a backing for my snowmen.  So I adhered my snowman trio to the paper and after a bit of fussy cutting ... Viola!

 















 For my Merry Christmas sentiment, I first die cut it from a scrap piece of red patterned paper then realizing it was too 'thin'!  So, I die cut my sentiment two more times from 110# white card stock (also scraps) then glued them all together.  This not only gave my sentiment more stability, but wonderful dimension.

 
Since I already had wonderful dimension behind my Merry Christmas sentiment, I decided to add a few strips of 3M dimensional tape behind my snowman trio too.    




These ways of adding dimension adds wonderful character to your card creations without adding addition postage!


Now all that is needed is a touch of holiday Sparkle!  To achieve that, I've simply added just a touch of Diamond Stickles to each of the snowflakes on my sentiment.  PERFECT!



Please be sure to pop over to the Tutti Designs Store and check out all of the fabulous dies in this latest release.  And, of course, you'll want to browse through the store to see what other dies you need to have on hand.
