Curtain Call - Plush and Plaid & LIM #248

This is my second post for today.  Sometimes when I plan to enter a card into more than one challenge, I forget to check the deadlines on all of them.  Such is the case with this card.  I made it for Curtain Call's Plush and Plaid challenge but knew it would fit with Less Is More's paper piecing challenge and their deadline is fast closing in.  So without further ado - my card.
The snowman is from Penny Black.  I stamped and fussy cut his hat and scarf from an old, old scrap of paper, making a plain green cuff.  His pom pom uses my new Snow Marker which puffs up when you heat it. I just wish it was whiter.  I edged the snow mound with VersaMark and snow embossing glitter.  Then after the fact, I decided to add some snowfall using the SSS stencil.  You can barely see it in the photo and it would have looked better to do that first.  Oh well, live and learn.  Seems I've been doing a lot of learning lately.

I'm definitely not dreaming of that white stuff just yet.  Are you?

What a great snowman and I love his plaid accessories, so stylish! I'm not dreaming of snow, the town where I live was apparently built on seven hills, so you can imagine what a pain it can be!
Thanks for sharing with us.
