Talk about cute! This card is charming, adorable, spunky, playful--it's all that and it makes me smile.
So, I mixed quite a few die cut sets for this card. It used to be that I tried to create cards that made business sense. Meaning one stamp set or bundle to keep tools and accessories at a minimum to be able to sell the stamps and things to make the card. Now, I use whatever the heck I want.
For this card I used three die cut sets and a punch to include: Stitched Nesting Labels Dies, Layering Circles Dies, the Snowman Builder Punch, and the Artis and Crafts Dies.
I get a kick out of adding the unexpected. The button chain die cuts are a total departure from the typical list of elements for a Let It Snow kind of card. I am loving how the buttons are a riff on snow but relate to "button eyes made out of coal" or "button up its cold..."
Get ready for a bit more inspiration from Melissa Stout, the Stamp Doc!

Elizabeth, I love that you make whatever you want! I find myself wanting to do that, too, without regard for keeping supplies to a minimum. I love all your work and saw you at OnStage - I wanted to say hi but was in a conversation and then I never found you again!
