Hi everyone. I'm back with a couple of cards using the Hug a Snowman (30-887) stamp set from the new Penny Black release.
The first card I posted HERE uses the largest of the images. This time I'm using two smaller images that are so darn cute! :) They are both stamped in black ink and heat embossed in clear, then watercoloured using distress inks: Salvaged Patina, Barn Door, Black Soot, Carved Pumpkin. To finish, I die-cut them into circles, added Chunky White Frantage by melting in my griddle and dots of white to the Snowman's hat and scarf, and stripes to the bunny's sweater. The circle is popped up on foam and adhered to my coloured card stock (unknown colour from SU!) ... it matches perfect with the Barn Door ink.
I smiled the whole time I was making these quick, clean and simple cards that celebrate winter. :)

Next up is the other smaller image from the set, and how cute is this with the bunny running to get a big hug from the snowman??!!

I'm entering the second card (with bunny) into Merry Little Christmas Challenge #42 - Anything Christmas Goes.
Thanks for coming by for a visit!

Two adorable Winter cards using the smaller snowmen and the so cute bunny from the PB Hug a Snowman stamp set. Loved your CAS designs with the perfect red cardstock. TFS my friend. Love and Hugs...Nancy
Two really happy winter cards. Thank you, you have cheered me up xx
I'd hug this snowman, for sure, Loll! But I think that bunny on your second darling card is after that snowman's nose!

Adorable snowman and rabbit! I like the circle set on a coloured card base!
Both are wonderful, love the images Loll.
Happy New Year

Two super winter themed cards Loll featuring this fun snowman and I love all the chunky snow embossing, and the red background on each really shows the white based toppers off, and the touches of blue and of couse the red for the snowman's scarf and hat coordinate beautifully..looks like some added pearl drops for buttons on the first too which look great! x
Two adorable Winter cards, Lolly! Love the snowmen in this set and your layout is perfect for them! We had a few snowflakes the other day but it melted on contact. No snowmen here!
Yes super cute cards Loll, a wonderful fun PB set of snowmen... loving your snow and simple circle design, Robyn
Snowmen in polka dot hats and scarves definitely deserve a hug! CUTE cards, Loll!
Loll these are gorgeous - such beautifully coloured images that have made a delightful pair of cards.
Stay safe
Blessings

Those smiling snowmen make me smile, Loll. Such cute cards.
These are so adorable. Who doesn't love a snowman. If we get the snow predicted, I can make my own snowman on Friday.
Your cards did make me smile. It is certainly cold enough here for it to snow. Hugs Mrs A.
Three darling images, and they make the sweetest of cards -- yes, that springing is sure adorable
They are adorable! It's so cold right now that I feel a snowman is hugging me!
Cute, CUTE cards Loll and those snowmen are just ADORABLE...love their smiles!! Hugs. :0)
