Here in Florida you need to wear shades all year, so the snowman is quite stylish.

Love the crinkle ribbon and stamp!

Winter Wonderland at Exploring Cricut

 Hello Crafty Friends,

 

The weekend flew right by and now we have another week filled with many new and exciting challenges. Die Cuttin' Diva starts tomorrow and Whimsical Designs has its first challenge on Wednesday with a new creative Design Team. I am looking forward to Friday already just because it is a three day weekend with the holiday. Yeah!

 

Today brings a new challenge at Exploring Cricut.

Theme...Winter Wonderland

 

Here is my Design Team project...

This was difficult to make since it has been in the 80's for the past two weeks. Who is thinking of snow then?!?! People are going to beach here in Florida.

This background paper was perfect because the glitterized snow and tree were there. I only had to add the snowman and snowflakes. Do you like his buttons? Those are skittles by Carri @Abusybee.

Materials:

Snow Folks Cricut cartridge

Me & My Big Ideas paper

white, brown, blue, orange, and red card stock

Fiskars snowflake punch

red and clear glitter skittles from Carri @Abusybee

Winter Wonderland stamp

green ink

Be sure to come back tomorrow for Die Cuttin' Divas and then again on Wednesday for Whimsical Designs.

Stay Creative,
Georgiana
