Inspiration: Lawn Fawnatics #42 + October 2018 Card Maps Sketch
I got the idea for this card when I spotted the Card Maps sketch with the row of snowmen. It was simply perfect to highlight the Simply Celebrate Winter stamp set from Lawn Fawn, so I got going on a design. I pulled out the Really Rainbow Christmas papers for a colorful look, and a touch of Perfectly Plaid Christmas paper for the center piece. The row of snowman was too small to fit the space properly, so I decided to use the row of trees behind them to fill out the space. For the peeking tab, I decided to use the Flirty Frames and I found a French sentiment that was the perfect size and fit in it in the Jingle All the Way stamp set from last year's Holidays catalogue.
The background seemed a little bare, so I pulled out the Mini Snowflakes dies and cut snowflakes out of glitter paper, which really made the whole card come to life. The center piece seemed a little bare as well, so I added scalloped edges using the Lacy Borders dies. Finally, the bow from the Mini Wreath dies was added at the top, and covered with Glitter Gloss Aqua Shimmer, which I also used on the end of the tree branches to make glistening snow.
The last touch was adding clear gems between the snowflakes and in the center of the tag.
