For my DT card I used 'Snowman at the window


I began by designing a zig-zag tag card on my Silhouette cameo.
I cut an aperture out of the front tag so that I could place the image behind it and hang the snowman’s scarf over the window sill.
I used a Martha Stewart punch to create the foliage round the window.
 Added some pearls to represent white berries, added a piece of ribbon and an artypants sentiment and it was done!
The paper is from an old Bearly Mine Christmas collection.
The image was coloured with Promarkers.
