The star of the show is the adorable snowman from the Snowman Season Stamp Set. He makes me giggle just looking at him, like the Pillsbury Doughboy, so he has acquired the name, Giggles.

Giggles

I gave Giggles lots of snow to make him happy. The gray dotted background (4″ X 5 1/4″) is from the Neutrals 6X6 Designer Paper in Smoky Slate. I layered this on a Smoky Slate card base (8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″) after stamping “let it snow” in Memento Black Ink. Giggles kept saying “let it snow” over and over, leaving me no choice.

How did Giggles come to be? I created him with Memento Black Ink stamped on Thick Whisper White Cardstock. After fussy cutting him (cutting with scissors), I gave him a touch of color with Light Smoky Slate (shading) and Light Pumpkin Pie (carrot nose) Stampin’ Blends.

Giggles said he would be even happier, if I gave him some giant snowflakes, so I obliged. I used the Winter Snow Embossing Folder with two Pieces of Thick Whisper White Cardstock, cut with a Stitched Rectangles Die (3 1/4″ X 1 1/4″).

If you look at this week’s CAS(E) this sketch, I think you’ll recognize the layout.
