Candy Cane for Snowman

Hi everyone.  Here's my card for the Digital Stamp of the Month as well as i {heart} card sketch with a twist #116 challenges at From The Heart Stamps.  The darling free stamp of the month for August is called Candy Cane for Snowman.  

For my take on the sketch, I turned the sketch 180 degrees.  The image was merged on top on some dotted dig paper.  I colored the image digitally, and also added some digital paper-piecing to the snowman's hat and scarf.  

I am thrilled to have my first Christmas card done!  I see a lot of snowman cards in my future... Thanks so much for stopping by, and wishing you a wonderful weekend!

    I think I am asking for a colored printer for Christmas!! This card is just incredibly beautiful! All the digital piecing and background is simply beautiful. Thanks for joining the sketch challenge #116 and the SOTM challenge.
