ABC Christmas Challenge .. F

We are up to F and this week we want to see Frosty cards with Lols choice of extra .. snow! we are sponsored by Simon Says Stamp and they are offering a $ spending spree to one lucky person.

And here is my frosty, snowy card.
I used this gorgeous PB snowman and watercoloured him before adding a good smattering of icicle stickles. I matted him onto red and blue cardstock. The dp, created by Martine, and available for free on her blog, is matted onto red and blue cardstock. I was going to add some embellies, but decided against it ... the dp is so gorgeous I didn't want to hide any of it.
Do check out the other DT's gorgeouys creations and have a go yourself ... we have a Guest DT spot up for grabs.
Recipe:
Stamp(s): Penny Black Snowy
Colouring Media: distress inks
Papers: free download from Martine
Embellishments: none gulp!!
