I'm straying a bit from the Valentine's cards today. I guess I was inspired by the weather some of us here in North America have been dealing with. Believe me, shaker snow is a pleasure, real snow, not my favorite!
This card features Rectangular Stamps Cutables and Miss Ewe digital stamp from the February release as well as Snowflake and Nested Hearts Cutables from a previous release.

I started this card by printing and cutting the ewes from white cardstock using a Silhouette. I used the mirror object function to flip one of them horizontally before printing. They were colored with Copic markers.
I wanted to try paper piecing again and this time got it to work. To do this, I used the eraser tool to isolate the scarf. I mirrored this image (actually several times to have extras just in case. Using the mirror tool after everything was erased made it much easier.
I printed the scarves on polka dot paper and then repeated the offset process and cut the scarfs with no problem. I did a little fussy cutting to clean up the edges of the scarves.
To complete the card, Rectangular Stamp was sized and cut to served as a mat for the flat shaker. Mica flakes and a few sequins make up the snow. A few snowflakes were cut and placed next, then the ewes. Little hearts seemed appropriate for the sweet sentiment that was printed, cut and matted.
Thanks for taking a look! Stay tuned for more of the February release from the Cat Pack. Stay warm and take care.
