Snow Buddy Like You!

Welcome to another Cards in Envy Challenge!  For this challenge we are to create an A2 sized card (5.5" x 4.25")  that features one or more snowmen.  Only requirement is that the card is 1/4" or less in thickness in order to fit in an envelope.

Here's is my Snowman card.

  • Designer Paper = The Paper Studio "I Believe in Santa" 8.5" x 11" pack.
  • Cricut cartridge = Winter Woodland
  • Sentiment = CardzTV "Home for Christmas" stamp set.
  • Embossing = Cuttlebug "Snowflakes" folder.
  • Ribbon = from Michaels
  • Punch = Martha Stewart (heart on inside of card).


A2 sized card = 5.5" x 4.25"
Cricut Winter Woodland cartridge
Card Recipe:
  • Mat 1 (red striped) = 5 3/8" x 4 1/8".
  • Mat 2 (white) = 5 1/4" x 4".
  • Mat 3 (blue border) = 2" x 4".
  • Sentiment "All hearts come home for Christmas" = from CardzTV "Home for Christmas" stamp set.  Stamp sentiment before embossing.
  • Mats 2 & 3 were embossed together using Cuttlebug "Snowflakes" folder.
  • Ribbon = from Michaels.

  • Snow Woman = cut at 3 3/4" from Cricut Winter Woodland cartridge; [Snwoman] found on page 47 of the folder.  Eyes were hand drawn onto snow woman's face.  I cut the [Blackout] of the image twice and attached to the image.  This gives the image a chipboard effect.

Inside of Card
Inside of Card:
  • Mat 1 (blue) = 5" x 3.75".
  • Mat 2 (white) = 4.75" x 3.5".
  • Heart = from Martha Stewart punch.

  3. I love the blue, red and white color scheme, and that the hat, scarf and heart are from the same paper as the red mat. Nicely done!
