Hello! It’s Thursday and you know that means it is time for a Create with Connie and Mary Thursday Challenge. This time it is a fun sketch to inspire us!

SNOWMAN MAGIC
I knew right away that I wanted to use my Snowman Magic Bundle for this card!

Stampin’ Details:
- The base is 5-1/2 x 8-1/2 Coastal Cabana cardstock, scored at 4-1/4 and folded.
- A 4 x 4 piece of Snowflake 12×12 Vellum was added on top.
- The largest Stylish Shapes circle was cut from Coastal Cabana cardstock and added to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- The next size Stylish Shapes circle was cut from Basic White cardstock and stamped with the snowman body, face and buttons in Memento Black Ink, the snowbank in Coastal Cabana Ink, the twig arms in Early Espresso Ink. The nose was colored with the Pumpkin Pie Marker. It was adhered to the Coastal Cabana circle.
- On scrap Basic White cardstock, the hat was stamped with Memento Black, the bird with Real Red Ink, the scarf with Coastal Cabana Ink and cut with the Snowman Dies, then added to the snowman body.
- The greeting from Snowman Magic stamp set was stamped with Real Red on 1/2 x 2-1/2, then cut with a point end. It was layered on a 3/4 x 2-3/4 piece of Real Red cardstock, cut with a point end. It was popped up on the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
- Two Sequins & Gems were added to the circle background.

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE how this turned out! The Snowflake Vellum just adds so much texture and shine in the background! Go check out what the rest of the Challenge Team did with this challenge over on Create with Connie and Mary
