Guest Designer - Try it on Tuesday

Frosty Winter Smiles
Happy Snowmen Couple

I was kindly asked if I would like to be Guest Designer for Try it on Tuesday. The theme is 'Winter Wonderland' and these little cuties were perfect!

I used Happy Snowmen Couple from Frosty Winter Smiles collection at Polkadoodles

I coloured using ProMarkers. I stenciled the background using Great Outdoors Stencil with Distress Oxide Ink

The postbox, fence and trees are from Festive Christmas Download Bundle - also Polkadoodles.

For the snow, I ripped strips of paper, inked the edges and added Glamour Dust.

I created the sentiment in Microsoft Word

I'd like to enter the following challenges:
