Today I am sharing a sweet Christmas card made for a friend to give to her daughter nd family. I chose to use the Snowman Season stamp set to make the card.
To recreate the Snowman Season Double Z Fold card you will need:
Thick Whisper White card base 11” by 5½” – scored at 2¾” and 5½”
Let It Snow designer series paper (dsp) – one piece at 5¼” by 5¼” and two pieces at 5¼” by 2½”
Coastal Cabana – 9¼” by 4¼” – scored at 2¾” and 5½” – all upper corners rounded
Real Red – one piece at 4” by 3½” and two at 4” by 2½” – all upper corners rounded
Whisper White – one piece at 3⅞” by 3⅜” and two at 3⅞” by 2⅜” – all upper corners rounded
Scrap Whisper White, Soft Suede & Real Red cardstock
I folded and burnished the score lines of the Thick Whisper White cards base and glued the panels of Let It Snow dsp to it before setting it to one side.
I folded and burnished the scorelines of the Coastal Cabana piece and added the Real Red panels using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

I stamped one of the sweet snowmen on the larger Whisper White panel using Memento Tuxedo Black ink. Using the Pool Party ink pad and a sponge I added colour to the panel around the nowman. I stamped the snowflakes from the same stamp set in Pool Party ink. The panel was the added to the largest Real Red panel.

I used the Make a Difference stamp set to stamp the ‘Daughter and family’ – I love how easy it is to line up the letters. I trimmed around the stamped words, added the cut out piece to a piece of scrap Real Red cardstock and trimmed around the edge. The words were then adhered to the card front with Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive.

Using the Snowman Builder Punch I punched a snowman from the same dsp stack and adhered it to one of the smaller Whisper White panels. I punched a hat from the same dsp and added it to the snowman. This panel was then glued to the last Whisper White panel.

The sentiment from the Perfectly Plaid stamp set was stamped in Real Red ink on the remaining Whisper White layer and adhered to the middle Real Red panel.

I added some retired Black Rhinestones for the snowmans buttons and covered the snowman in Clear Wink of Stella. Using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive I added a scattering of Snowflake Sequins and spritzed the card front with more Wink of Stella to increase the shimmery effect. To complete the card I covered the ‘snowballs’ with dits of Shimmery Crystal Effects
Such a pretty card, I do hope you and my lovely friend like it.
