Still playing catch up with my Christmas Cards

Did I say CAS was the way to go? got sidetracked there somehow!

This card was inspired by all the challenge's with the theme of non-traditional colours, snowflakes, punches and Circles.   I'll list them at the end of the post.

In your tucked away old stash do you have a box or two of Papermaina shapes?   Something that seemed like a good idea at the time but perhaps never proved as useful as you thought? I have!    The circles  came in useful for this card.  The solid one has been stamped with one of this year's Craft Stamper's cover stamps that is also a circle.   The snowflakes have been punched from a couple of punches and everything stuck down after being run through a zyron sticker maker.   There is always a bit of glue on the edges after using that tool so I pressed dark blue glitter into it for added sparkle.     The buttons added with Glossy accents add more circles and non traditional colours.

The Challenge's in mind for the making of this are;
Allsorts - Circles
Craft your Days away - Buttons or bows
One stop Craft - Let it Snow
Suger Creek Hollow - Non Traditional colours
Sweet Stampin' - Snowflakes (or Snowmen or Snow or....)
By the cute and girly - Let it snow
Emerald Faerie Garden - Non Traditional colours
Crop Stop - Punches
The Crafty Pad - Punch shapes
2 Sisters - Punches

  18. Fab card Zoe, I had 4 boxes of those things (on sale!) gathering dust for a few years....ended up distributing them between various local playgroups, toddler groups, brownies, rainbows & friends children. I think they're still wading through them lol!!

    Wish I'd had your creativity though! Thanks so much for playing along with Sweet Stampin x
