Hello everyone! Samantha here on the Memory Box blog and today I am sharing a card featuring the adorable new snowmen dies from the latest release.
Background:
For this card, I decided to keep my background clean and simple by die cutting a solid panel of cardstock using the beautiful new Fan Stitched Scalloped Frames. I selected the second largest frame and cut a panel from a dark orchid colored cardstock from my stash.
Snow Family:
I wanted to create a scene featuring a snow family so I grabbed the Dapper Snowman, Cute Bundled Snowman, and Stylish Snowman Trio Dies and got to work. I decided to keep my snow family coordinated in outfits colored in teals and purples. I also added in some pattern paper from the Fuchsia Plaid Paper Pack and a little pastel teal glitter paper.
To start, I die cut all of the elements for all of my snowmen and, once complete, did some light ink blending with Distress Oxide inks to add a little shading and dimension. I then assembled all of my die cuts per the guides on the back if the packaging, and moved on to assembly.
Final Assembly:
I carefully arranged my snow family on my orchid card panel. I decided 5 snowmen was too many so one of my snow kids was put aside to be used for a future project and the remaining four were then adhered with both glue and foam tape for added dimension.
Once everything was glued down, I decided the background needed a little extra so I cut three snowflakes from the Alpine Snowflakes Dies out of white glitter cardstock and tucked them around the heads of my family. To finish everything off, I grabbed a white Merry & Bright sentiment tab and glued my panel onto a white A2 folding card base.
My cute card is now complete and my snow family is even cuter than I had hoped.
Thanks for reading!
