All Wrapped Up -- for The 12 Months of Christmas Link Up

It's the 15th of the month (already?!?) and it's time for some mid-month inspiration on the 12 Months of Christmas Link Up.  Our optional theme this month is "All Tied Up".  We'd like to see ribbon, twine, bows -- anything you'd use to tie up those Christmas gifts!

One of our generous sponsors at the 12 Months of Christmas Link Up is Limited Runs.  I had so much fun with this Mini Snowman!

I colored the mini snowman with Copic markers -- it didn't take much coloring.  I used a die from Sizzix to cut out the step card, then a Spellbinders die to cut out the snowman and the backing paper.  The designer papers on this card are from one of the other sponsors at The 12 Months of Christmas -- Decosse's Dynamite Doodles.  Lisa makes beautiful papers for us each month.  I love the pink and teal in these snowflake and swirl papers!

The twine on this card is from Timeless Twine. 

I hope you find time to link up your Christmas  cards at The 12 Months of Christmas Link Up, with our optional All Tied Up theme!  Christmas is coming ever closer!
