Once all the matting has been adhered, adhere the card front and the slider in place. Find the sentiment, cut out and distress. Stamp the Spruce trees with clear embossing powder, die cut, shape then apply the white drying glue to the treetops and branches to form the snow layers. Cut the leaf boarder from the design paper. Stamp with gold embossing powder the Frolicking Frosty and the snowflakes. Apply glitter to the snowflakes with the aid of the clear drying glue. Color the Frolicking Frost’s. Stamp with the archival black ink the Frosty image. Add all the embellishments to the card front with the double side tape / double dots and clear drying glue. To finish the card, apply the white drying glue to all the treetops, branches and all the snow lines. Ready to go.

Well if winter has not hit you yet...lets hope later when it does you can make your own  Mr frosty and throw a few snow balls your self. A few rounds of ice skating would not go amiss...it's on my list. I am sure hoping for snow this winter, we did not get it last year....we got the rain and cold. You have gathered I love the snow. You have to understand in New Zealand where I grew up we did not get the snow and here in Holland we don't get snowed in. 

If you only look on the up side and turn back the clock so you don't have a care in the world...yes it can be a lot of fun playing in the snow.
