Holy Cricut Challenge #3

 I found this challenge on FB (Holy Cricut Challenge#3)...I am always up for a challenge...especially if it's fun and sparkly!

The challenge is to create anything, using the following 4 items.

Snowman
Ribbon
Patterned paper
Stickles
In case you don't know what Stickles are....I've posted a photo of the bottle.  I only recently discovered them and am completely hooked.  It's the BEST glitter glue I've ever used.  I would buy a bottle of each color...except I promised myself I wouldn't do that until I use up the "blah" blands of glitter glue I already have. 

With the way I've been crafting cards, that may not take too long! :)  Anyway, to the challenge...
I wanted to make my family Christmas THANK-YOU cards...so my challenge result is this cute, sparkly card.  The card is made of baby blue glitter stiff cardstock.  I then put snowflake patterned paper on it.  I used the decorative corner rounder to give Mr. Snowman a nice place to stand.  I put clear, white Stickles into the snowflakes of the patterned paper.  This makes them pop.  Mr. Snowman and large snowflake was made with the Cricut, Stretch Your Imagination cartridge.  I added dimension by using foam squares under the snowman and snowflake.   There is a little basic white ribbon at the bottom that I dotted with turquoise blue Stickles.  The sentiment, "Thanks Snow Much!," was stamped using the Skipping Stone Design stamp (Snowman collection).  I hope Mr. Snowman warms your heart!  Happy New Year!!
