Inlaid Christmas Die - Let it Snow !!

Hi, today this is my card for the 52 {Christmas} Card Throwdown challenge.

This week it is a technique challenge, Inlaid Dies




Great fun was had chasing the little pieces around with the "Let it Snow" sentiment die.
I cut the die in light blue and pieced into white, for the snow. Then thought about adding some darker blue pieces within the sentiment for some extra colour. I considered stamping just various snowflakes, keeping it quite simple, but I saw this little snowman and he was calling out to me to be stamped. So I made a scene up for him to stand in front of. A lovely winter evening sky completed my background along with some snowflakes as my original idea. Hope that you like my finished card.






Thank you for visiting and reading about my card design.
