I fancied making a crisp white and red card and I wanted to use one of my fave images. I love this line of snowmen! It doesn't get a lot of use - it's great for the front of envelopes. It's a wheel stamp but I unmounted it and use it with an acrylic block. There are a few older Christmas stamps in my stash that I'm very fond of and will never part with and I try to use them at least once each year. The more Christmas stamps I acquire the less I can use all the ones I've got. I don't seem capable of not buying new Christmas stamps each year although I tell myself I don't need any!
I stamped the line of snowmen and then applied a strip of Woodware double sided adhesive sheet, peeled off the backing paper and sprinkled on crystal glitter. Double sided adhesive is a great way to glitter a larger area I've found. I stamped the sentiment, applied the ribbon and flat bow and to finish I rounded the bottom corners. It's been really gloomy here today so I wasn't able to get a great photo.
