We're back to the alphabet prompts at Beccy's Place 30 Days of Holidays and today's letter is "J."
What's better than the Joy of Christmas as shown by a Jolly snowman with an ornament hanging from his Jaunty nose?
I colored with ProMarkers and I'm calling those greens "Jade, Juniper, or Jungle" to add a few more "J"s. Don't they look great against the glacier blues?
I cut the image with a simple, square die from Spellbinders, then used another larger die from that set to cut glittered, white CS for the frame behind it.
I had already used an Elizabeth Craft Designs sentiment die to cut out the "Merry Christmas" which I used on another project. The snowflakes were all cut with various Spellbinders dies. I used white gel ink to pop them from the blue background, adding some dimension at the same time.

This is my second post and that's all I have for today. I'm going to go and make decisions on the images for the next several Christmas cards for Beccy's Place, just to see if I can work ahead a bit. Happy Crafting. NanaConnie

The first thing that caught my eye were those big, beautiful snowflakes NC, they are fabulous! I like the way you added a little bit of white backing around the parts that were over the blue card stock... great idea to help them stand out. Lovely.
Cheers,
Beccy
