Hello Tutti Friends!
Darlene with you today, stepping in for new DT member LeAnne who has unfortunately not received her dies to create with yet in Canada ... hmmm, guess shipping is going to take longer than we thought!
Anyways, hopefully she will have her dies and her own creation to share with you next Wednesday, but for today, you're stuck with me! LOL
Today's creation is quick, easy and I think adorable!
I've used three Tutti Designs dies ...
From our July 2016 Release ... Jolly Snowman #137
from our November 2016 Release ... Stitched Nesting Rectangles #217
and from our December 2016 Release ... Believe #230
Here are a few little tips on how this creation came together . . .
I wanted my snowman to have added dimension so instead of fussing with dimensional tape since this beautiful die is so intricate, I die cut it three times ... colored the one that would be on top ... glued them all together.
I created my background panels using an older off cut for blue snowy paper and a panel of white card stock that was embossed with the Sizzix Tim Holtz falling snow embossing folder.
To create my FRAME for Mr. Snowman, I die cut a panel of black card stock using the largest and 3rd largest Stitched Nesting Rectangles. Then I used dimensional tape before adhering to my background.
As you can see in the photo below, this gave my card wonderful dimension against the snowy background. Lastly, I needed a sentiment and who doesn't Believe a snowman comes to life when we're not looking!! LOL
