Gecko Galz - January Customer Challenge

Happy New Year, my dear friends!
Welcome to my first post of 2017! 

It's the 1st of the month, 
so there's a new Customer Challenge beginning over at Gecko Galz.
The theme for January is "Let It Snow."

Here's the fun card I made.
It's a simplified shaker card.


 I cut the background paper, and then added the colored snowman image.
Then I cut a piece of acrylic to fit over top, placing some fun snowflake confetti behind it.
I then cut the pretty snowflake frame to fit.
Finally, I did some wonky, uneven stitching around the frame to hold it all together.
Oh, and I added some rhinestones.


Here's a closer look at the snowman.
Isn't he adorable...and SO happy! :o)
You can also see the snowflakes floating around.


Other Materials Used:
Cut File: Lori Whitlock - Snowflake Frame;
Cricut Explore Air;
Spectrum Noir Markers;
Crafts - Rhinestones;
Unknown Snowflake Confetti.


Gecko Galz Products Used:
The blue background paper is from the Blue Christmas Craft Kit.
The pretty snowflake frame was cut from a paper from the Winter Wonderland Digital Paper Pack.
The sweet snowman is from the Snow Man Way Digital Stamps.

Head on over to Gecko Galz to see all the wonderful inspiration from the DT,
and to read all the details of the challenge!
