February's Scrapbook Club layout

Since we've had another abundance of snow this year, I was asked to do a 'Snow' layout for Scrapbook Club.  This is what I came up with.

 

Isn't this snowman cute?  I hand cut the bottom of him using SU's Cutter kit & used a 3" circle for his head.  The nose is the solid stamp from 'Pick a Petal' stamped in Only Orange on Whisper White card stock & cut out.  Then sponge some White craft ink on the top.  His eyes are 1/2" circle punches in black with a bit of White gel pen for the shine. The buttons are plain black buttons glued on with mini glue dots.  His scarf is just a wrapped piece of Blue striped grosgrain ribbon held down with mini glue dots. 

The bottom snow hills are a 4 X 12" piece of Whisper White card stock torn in half - one for each page.  I sponged the torn edges first with Bashful Blue ink & then brushed the edge with the Versamark ink pad & embossed it with Iridescent Ice embossing powder.  I prefer to emboss for scrapbooking rather than have glitter on my pages.

The background snowflakes (Serene Snowflakes) are stamped on the Elegant Eggplant cs using white craft ink.  The snowflake embellishments are ones I picked up last year at a local discount store - sorry; they are not SU.

An easy, but eye catching page layout.  Thanks for stopping by!
