Mr. Snowman ~ with Cyndy G

Good morning and happy Friday.  Cyndy here bringing you a project from SVG Attic.  I decided to make the Snowman 3D Ensemble.  Christmas may be over but as a lot of us know winter is still here!  Here in southern NC we don't see a lot of snow and when we do get snow it comes with a big dose of ice.  As we approach the weekend we are waiting once again for an ice storm so I thought this little snowman would make a good plea for snow :)

I think he is just adorable and he really wasn't hard to put together.  This is a project that could be completed in a day.

Doesn't he have the cutest face.  I just love his crooked smile.  The kit does come with a bow but I decided I wanted to use some ribbon I had on hand.  I thought it fit him perfect.  Thank you for stopping by.

Snowman Tree ~ with Cyndy G

Hello, today I am sharing a project that I am very proud of.  A Snowman Christmas tree made with files from SVG Attic.  I used the Mourners Hat from JGW Raven Quest, Elements from JGW Frosty Topper and the eyes and mouth pieces of the snowman in SDS Ice Princess Party.

This was really easy to make! I used an 18" Styrofoam ball I got at Hobby Lobby, black balls and a scarf.  The rest I made from the files mentioned above. 

This is in my office at work and I have to admit he puts a smile on everyone's face that comes in.  I just love him.  Thank you for stopping by today.

Snow Flurries ahead

Hello all I-team member Sonja here with my latest project. Really the only part of winter I look forward to is when I get to pull my snow globes out! In honor of them, I decided to make this snow globe from the JGW Snow Flurries set with a little extra kick to it at the end.

When I saw the globe, I knew right away that I wanted to do the snowman in vellum. However, vellum can be a little tender to work with if glue is involved. To prevent the vellum from shriveling up, I wanted to use my tape gun to adhere the hands. But then, *light bulb*, hello I have the Xyron Sticker Maker! I use this little handy dandy object for small projects just like this. 

 I ran the arms through the sticker maker

Before peeling off the top layer, I rubbed around each element with a sharp end of a pencil to eliminate any extra tape.

 The final project came out well with some added snowflake embellishments.

The bottom of the globe is a box to add any extra goodies to. However, I wanted to add a different kind of goody to it.

On my Christmas globes, many of them have lights and blowers in them. To replicate that, I added a hole to the top plate of the box.

 Then I added a little tea light.

Snowman Box Card ~ with Cyndy G

Hello today I am sharing a Snowman Box Card from JGW Made of Snow.  I made several of these little cuties.  I just love this card!

These cards went together so quickly.  I inked the edges of the snowmen to give them a little more dimension.  I also modified mine a little bit.  I welded a "flap" to the front of my card instead of using the hearts.  If I can keep up with making my cards this year I should be able to send out handmade cards to everyone on my list!

Thank you for stopping by.

Winter Fun

I-team Sonja here. There are so many great winter activities, that I decided to display them all for January.

I used several SVG Attic files to create this project listed below under Materials Used. 

I really wanted an old style sled. I decided to put a couple of SVG Attic files together and create my own sled!

You can't have winter fun without snow! This new snowflake is gorgeous with the glitter paper. 

I like to watch hockey, ice skate not so much (getting too old for falling on ice), same goes for skiing, but building a snowman is still fun!  

A dab of fake glitter snow against the sparkling paper makes it all pop! 

The lights make this set serene when lit up at night! 

This concludes my take on winter and I hope to not see anymore snow for a long time!

Frosty the Snowman ~ with Cyndy G.

Happy Friday!  Today for my post I wanted to share my Snowman canister.  Some of my favorite files to work with are the canister characters!  He is from the JGW Winter Friends Canister Kit.  I love this guy, he is so cute.

I decided to use some tan paper with snowflakes I had for this project.  I really like the way he came out.  What I love most about these files is you can use traditional colors or try something different and still come out with a stunning finished product.

I love all his little details.  His scarf, glove and snowflake to top off his hat.

Thank you for stopping by today, I hope you have a great weekend!
