Ahh boo hoo, my week off is over! We did win the Lottery at the weekend, but it was only for 2 lucky dips, so its back to the grindstone tomorrow for me ;)
Sorry this photo is so pants, I should maybe have taken it without the flash on, but the dark evenings are here already. Anyway, the inspiration for my cards came from Donna's lovely snowman card - she's this week's featured stamper at Splitcoast. I've used some of my favourite Eat Cake Graphics stamps:
1193-J Snowman (assembled)
8234-F All is calm (text)
I've coloured my snowman with watercolour pencils and popped him up on dimensionals. A good layer of my clear glitter pen was added to the band on his hat and to his scarf.
I'd no intentions of making 2 cards, but when I made the first (blue) one, I realised my snowman should be looking into the card so made the red one and think it looks much better :)

Fabulous cards, love the snowman. The red one is my favourite - I agree that the snowman is cuter looking towards the sentiment.
