Thanks Snow Much Card by Crafty Math Chick

Thanks Snow Much Card by Crafty Math Chick | Winter Tails Stamp set by Newton's Nook Designs #newtonsnook

Too Much Snow??!

There have been some big blizzards throughout the United States lately so I'm sure many of our readers can relate with the snowy scene on this card by Crafty Math-Chick! She used  that cute bunny up to her nose in snow from our Winter Tails stamp set. I love how she fussy cut her out and put her in front of some snowy paper! The red shovel adds the perfect pop of color on the shovel and the little bird! She used the "thanks SNOW much" sentiment for her card but there are several other sentiments in the Winter Tails stamp set too including "let it snow" and "make it stop!" So fun!


Thanks, Crafty Math-Chick for the adorable card today! To see more details and other projects, you can visit her blog, Canines & Card Designs.
