Pile It On! Challenge - No Rectangles

We have another fun Pile It On! Challenge starting today...and the theme is:

'No Rectangles'

Our sponsor this week is Sweet Pea Stamps:
Prize - 4 digi images of the winner's choice!

I used my largest scalloped Nestie die to make a cute circle card...featuring a little Penny Black snowman from the 'Jolly Friends' set. I coloured him using watercolour pencils, then added some sparkle to the snow using a Wink of Stella pen. For the background, I embossed the pink card using a Cuttlebug snowflake folder, then distressed the edges a little and added some faux stitching using my CutterBee Bug and a white gel pen. The snowflakes were cut using a Cuttlebug die, and the adhesive pearls are from Hobbycraft.


Here are the challenges I've piled on:
For more inspiration from my lovely DT buddies, please pop over to the Pile It On! Challenge.
