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

Christmas Card

Hello! Today I got together with my best friend, Jennifer Ruiz, and we each made some projects for challenges! It was so fun getting together with someone who loves to craft!

I was so happy with the final result for my card.  At first I made the base so huge that my little creatures didn't even show up.  Does this happen to anyone else? Or am I just a mess?  :)

The edges are all inked with my brand new Tim Holtz Vintage Photo ink.  This stuff IS as good as I heard.  It's kind of hard to see it in the pictures :(

I'm entering this card into Celebrate The Occasion Challenge #22-Shaped Christmas Cards and My Craft Spot's Challenge #16-Ink it up.

Thank you so much to everyone for letting me know when my cards can also go into other challenges! I really appreciate that :)


Looks like these penguins took a joy ride! 


My husband said that it would be funny if they looked like they all pilled up and one was upside down.  You can see him better here-


Jennifer was kind enough to supply me with some Baker's Twine.  It adds so much detail!  I need to get some ASAP!


I popped everything up with pop dots.
