Snowmen Frosty Hugs with Polkadoodles

 

You Warm My Heart with Prickley Pear

 

Hello everyone!  Hope everyone is well and enjoying this time of year!  Today I'm

sharing a cute winter card using a digital stamp from

Prickley Pear Stamps

You Warm My Heart

This is such a cute digital stamp!  I wanted to make use of the fun background that

is included in the set.  I first sized it in my computer and then printed it out along

with the sentiment.

I wasn't sure what I was going to do for my card.  I finally decided to die cut

the image with part of the background with my Gina K Designs Fabulous

C0, C1, C2, C3, C5, C7, 100

R00, R02, R20, R22, B00, B12, B23

On the raised parts of the embossed panel I applied Twinkle Stickles with

a pointed cotton swab and set it off to the side to dry.

love the effect of that very glittery paper peaking out from behind the embossed

panel!  So much sparkle!

I die cut my sentiment using an oval die I had in my stash.  I made an A2
