LOL - tell me I can't do something and that's exactly what comes to mind! Oh well, I managed. I recently received an order from Elizabeth Craft Designs and decided to use my new Stylish Snowman die set. So darling with many options for headgear - I chose the knit cap, die cutting it from patterned paper. Let me tell you, I had a large stack of 6x6 Christmas pads to flip through, searching for the perfect patterns. Picking a more feminine one, I'm calling her Ms Snow Woman. Since she's stylish, I gave her a hands-on-hips model pose. I had some pink oval enamel dots sitting on the counter so tried them for her little mouth.
Very easy card, just die cut and assemble. I used a preprinted sentiment from SSS.
Next up - a good luck card for a chorus quartet, Spice, heading off to Sweet Adelines International Competition next month in Phoenix.

The lead and bass singers in Spice sang with me in Chord Company so I'm always delighted to support my friends! Their motto is "Live Life with Spice" and they've given themselves names relating to various spices. So I tried to capture them in the colors I used for the circles. I used a new to me die set from Whimsy Stamps that cuts a darling mini slim trifold card (I've cut one for future use). The trifold has three circle windows but fortunately the set comes with four patterned circle dies - perfect for a quartet! Maybe you can guess which spices are included...
I'll add my Good Luck card to Darnell's August NBUS Challenge since my circle dies are new.
That's it for today. Thanks for stopping and happy crafting!

I had to laugh now. The snowman with his cap looks so funny.
Love that snowman, such a cute hat. Your good luck card has amazing dimension and I love the background. Sorry, but I am not going to try and guess the spices. I would only embarrass myself! xx
