C.C. Designs Preview Day 1: MAKE A SNOWMAN METAL DIE

Happy Tuesday everyone! We are on Day 1 of Previews for the NOVEMBER RELEASE at C.C. Designs. The release will be available for purchase this Thursday at 12pm CST. The theme for this release revolves around winter. I know I say this every month, but you are really going to LOVE everything! There will be 4 new stamp sets, an adorable Make A Snowman Metal Die, and a new Paper Pad.

 

Today I'm previewing the most adorable snowman using the Make A Snowman Metal Die. The great thing about working with Metal Dies is the versatility. You can keep it easy-peasy by cutting the pieces from different colored cardstock and gluing together, or you can cut the pieces from white cardstock and color the pieces to achieve more depth. For this card, I decided to color him up using Copic Markers! 

 

 Copics:

Snowman: BV20, BV23, C0, Colorless Blender

Red: R24, R27, R29, R39, R59

Arms: E43, E47

Nose: YR04, YR09, E19

Eyes: C10

 

Isn't he so much fun?!! I love him so much! To create this snow globe shaker card, I used pieces from the SugarPea Designs Snow Globe Die. I didn't have a circle large enough for the snowman, so I traced a CD. The sentiment is from a C.C. Designs set called Tiny Winter (which will be showcased tomorrow).

 

 

The decorative paper is from C.C. Designs Christmas Paper Pad. The ribbon is from Walmart.

 

 

Don't forget, there will be two Preview Day Mini Hops on the C.C. Designs Blog...one today and one tomorrow. Be sure to leave a comment on each DT post for ALL Preview Days for a chance at winning a $15 Gift Certificate to the C.C. Designs Store! The two winners will be announced on the C.C. Designs Blog on Thursday. 

 

Happy Hopping!
