Challenge #198 - A Few of My Favorite Winter Things

This week's THE SHABBY TEA ROOM Challenge #198 is to include buttons/bells, snowflakes, silver & white.  All of which are definitely my favorite winter things...plus snowmen! 
Of course white can mean 'vintage' white to me and I went to town putting ivory cardstock together with a Distress Stained (antique linen) Sizzix snowman edged with Vintage Photo Distress ink.  He's also embossed with a Sizzix embossing folder.  Scrap ribbon is tied around his neck. 
The large Sizzix snowflake is layered with silver cardstock from my stash and 4 layers of vellum.  I also used the silver card stock for the Martha Stewart scallop border punch.
Seam binding is from Hug Snug, an A Muse Studio diecut star in craft store glitter paper is behind the snowflake.  The button at the center of the snowflake is from Tim Holtz.  Tiny silver bells are from Michaels.  Think Snow is A Muse stamped in Ranger Archival Black.
Thanks for stopping by today!  I love creating winter themed cards.
Warm winter wishes!
