Snow Globe

I have been wanting to use the snow globe from Doodle Charms for a while but I don't have this cartridge.  I went into my Gypsy and designed this snow globe from three circles, two rectangles and a trapezoid.  It took a while, but I think it ended up looking a lot like the real cut :)

I have a drawing of a snow globe in my classroom that inspired this card.  It is so cute, I wish I could find a real snow globe like it to add to my collection.

Here is a picture of my card.


I am loving the way that it turned out!  I added some glossy accents all around the globe to make it look like glass.  I also spritzed the snow with Perfect Pearls for a shimmery look.  Wish it would show up in pictures!  For extra sparkle, I added a rhinestone to her bow. 

Recipe:
Face: Peachy Keen Critter Faces- Small Assortment
Snow Globe: Gypsy Wanderings- I welded all the shapes together to make this card base. 
Tree: Winter Woodland
Penguin: Simply Charmed
Twine: Twinery

    Even though I love all of your cards, this one is one of my favorites! It just screams MARIBEL!! Also, it matches the snow globe perfectly. You should have posted a picture of it.
