Spinning snowman

Hi everyone! I hope you are all well.

I have a card to share with you today that is my first attempt at this technique. It was so fun to do that I will start trying with other stamps.

I created a Spinner card.


I had a really hard time thinking of which stamp to use as the 'spinner'. I finally decided on this adorable snowman from the "Snow Pal" set (SU). 

I used a stamp from the same set which is quite large so I used my Basic Black marker to ink up the line of the sentiment which I wanted to use. 

The cut out for the slider created an aperture for me in which to place my sentiment.

I embossed the white panel with the Perfect Polka Dots folder (SU) for the feel of snow.

The snowman looks very happy that it is snowing when he is spinning around, lol.

I also coloured his sprig of holly with my SU markers and added some stickles to the berries.



I would like to enter this card into the following challenges -


The Cute Pie Challenge #51 - Anything Goes - I think my snowman is very cute!
My Time to Craft Challenge #231 - Aperture

I hope you enjoyed my Spinning Snowman!

Thanks so much for looking xx

    Brilliant idea - he's a really jolly snowman. Love the texture with the dotty background and the touch of sparkle in the holly sprig! Thanks so much for playing along with 52CCT this week!

    Hi Kylie. So adorable!!! Have not made one of these cards ... assume you need a special die to cut out the aperture. Perfect match with your cute snowman and sentiment. Loll xx

    I totally agree with you, Kylie! Your snowman is very cute and he is going to go live in my "CASE this!" folder! The twinks will each love to have one of these!
