The snow was falling heavily the day I created this tag. While we didn't get the right snow to make a snowman, I did create a papery one with plenty of texture.
#8 tag; Stampers Anonymous CMS098 Grunge Flakes; core'dinations whitewash collection; distress stains (Tumbled Glass, Picket Fence, Weathered Wood); distress inks Tumbled Glass, Tea Dye); archival inks (Jet Black, Tree Branch, Monarch Orange); Rock Candy Distress Glitter; Texture Paste; Sticky Embossing Powder; Sizzix dies (Winter Wonder, Typeset, Alphanumeric); chipboard; foam tape; clear snowflake; jump ring; crinkle ribbon
Here's a close-up...the technique is on the snowflakes. It's kind of difficult to see in the photo above.
This tag has been entered into the
CCC3 #21 Challenge...see page 55 of
Tim's latest book for details on how to create this look for yourself. Don't forget that you have two chances of being a winner...one is chosen by the Curiosity Crew and gets an awesome package of Tim's products while the other is chosen randomly and gets a $50 gift certificate to
The Inspiration Emporium. How can you go wrong? Happy creating!

LOVE this, and wish there was snow here today...it's a strange balmy 80 degrees. YUCK...it's too early for 80. LOVE this though, and your glittery background! Thanks so much for joining in our glittery challenge at CC3Challenge!!!
ReplyDeleteI, too thought about doing a snowman when it was snowing here in Colorado too, Susan! I decided I had had enough of snow though and opted for a Valentine tag. Now it is really warm here. Anyway, your snowman is darling and well done. Thanks for joining us for this challenge!
ReplyDeleteWooo, glittery snowflakes, perfect choice for this challenge! Your background is so pretty and I love the lettering for your sentiment. Thanks for sharing this on CC3C!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful background... that's my kind of glitter use. Lovely texture on the snowman too. Thanks for sharing this with us at CC3C!
ReplyDeleteCorrrr, what a gorgeous tag... LOVE how you used the technique, the snowflakes are stunning... and it is so great to see a snowman not for Xmas! Thanks for playing along with the CC3C x
ReplyDeleteSusan...this is so cute and I really love how your snowflakes look using Tim's Rock Candy Glitter technique. That is the perfect use for it...to simulate that unmistakable glisten of new fallen snow. :) This is such a cute tag!! Thanks for sharing with us at CC3C. <3 Candy
