Mod Squad and JUGS challenges



I got the idea when I remembered  an old stamp set from StampinUp. So I thought that I would have a little fun with this challenge.  It is easy to add sparkle with glitter and I have to tell you that I am covered with it.  As hard as I try to be neat, I still get glitter all over the place. 


It's word week and the word is Sparkle!  Well that fits so well with the Snowman challenge at Mod Squad.  Once again I combined the two challenges and made one card. 


          Here is the card that I made for these challenges.

                        No one said that I snowman had to be assembled!!!!  


Here is a little better angle of the sparkle,
By the time I finished the card, it was to dark to photograph in natural light, so I had to take this with a spot light on it.  No, I can't wait until tomorrow.  By then, I will probably be on to a different project.







This is the inside of the card.  Now the snowman is all together and Missing You!  There are lots of snowflakes in the air too. 
I used my StampinUp stamp set called, Thanks Snow Much.  Along with a Newtons Nook set called Winter Tails.  I colored it with my Copic markers.  Of course the snow is GKD Frozen glitter.  So sparkly in real life.  The swirls are a die from Memorybox called Big Splash, but I think it also looks like snow swirling around.  Snow can be red!
Thanks for stopping by and leaving comments.  I do appreciate them, especially this time of year when everyone is so busy.  I hope your shopping is almost done and you can relax, and wrap gifts, and decorate the tree, and bake cookies, and make Christmas cards, and Phew!  That's a lot!
So as my favorite Quarterback says.....RELAX!   tee hee
