Celebrate Winter Birthdays

Tracy here from Idea Closet. I hope you had a very nice Christmas and a great start to the new year.

I don't like winter ,and I really don't like the cold, but January and February are full of birthdays at our house so we still have lots of celebrating to do.

To get started on the birthday card list, I made two winter cards to help celebrate.

The first card is the Sled 3D Gift Card Holder and is part of the JGW Made of Snow Collection. 
I love this card and it is super easy to put together.  

On the underside of the sled is an envelope to hold a gift card.  

Makes a great gift, big or small for someone special.

I used wood printed paper for the top of the sled and then tied red twine to the steering bar.

Next is the Snowman Box Card.

I love box cards because they can be folded flat for mailing and then displayed on a desk or shelf.

I cut the arms and the roof to the house from the same wood printed paper.

To add a little interest to the Snowman I added glitter to the bottom of each panel.

I also chalked up the cheeks a little bit.

To finish my little snowman, I tied a scarf around his neck using the same red twine. 

Both cards together would make a great little gift or use them separately.

Thank you for joining me today and stay warm.

Christmas in July

Hello all. Sonja with Sugar Bean Cards here to share with you my version of the newest Snowman Box Card found on SnapDragon Snippets site.

I started with two sheets of Bazzill Papers Coconut Swirl cardstock to cut out all the white portions. Then I dipped into my scrap papers to cut out the rest of the shapes.

I ran the white portions through the Sizzix Big Shot with a Darice polka dot embossing folder

 Just to add a bit of texture that looks like snow.

I wanted my tree tops and roof to look like it had snow on it so I took the slicing tool in Silhouette Studios, selected the freehand option, and sliced the tops off.
