Winter Wishes Snowman

 

At Kate Hadfield Designs there are so many fabulous sets it is really easy to get inspired to use them. There are digital stamps which you can colour, coloured versions you can scrapbook or make into digital layouts. Papers, patterned overlays and doodles galore. No matter what your skill level there are so many goodies to play with.

One of the most fabulous things about being in this Creative Team is that we have free rein to make anything we want to using the sets in the shop. This is amazing for inspiring creativity as there are so many amazing packs to play with. I feel very, very lucky to be able to have this opportunity.

Kate is really generous with her freebies which are readily available. If you sign up to the newsletter you get access to an extra subscriber area the Doodle Den where there are loads more freebies. There is a gallery full of projects by the Creative Team and customers and so much inspiration for crafters and teachers. I would highly recommend you pop over there and join in the fun.

This card has been made with the Winter Wishes freebie. This has some pre-coloured images and this lovely snowman comes with or without the scarf. Earlier in the year I purchased the Gemini II die cutting machine from Crafter's Companion. I had seen it demonstrated at the Evesham store and was impressed with how much quieter it was. They really dropped the price for 24 hours and it 'fell' in my basket.

The die cut snowflake frame was the first thing I cut on mine as it is so intricate I knew it would be a good test for it. My previous Gemini would have struggled to cut this in a single pass, it would have been at least 2 times I had to run it through and even then it would miss certain areas. This was a much, much better cut and I am glad I upgraded to this machine.

The card base is covered with a beautiful snowflake paper and I also used this as a layer behind Mr Snowman. I added some sparkly gems to the snowflakes and the sentiment has been recycled from an old shop bought card.
