My cute little snowman was stamped at my friend Emily's eons ago. The snowglobe base is also from a die Emily had (but not anymore!). I coloured and glittered my snow guy and die cut him in a circle to fit the base. The sentiment is actually a speech bubble but I masked off the bottom portion before stamping and embossing.
I'm not as thrilled with my second card, but it did use up an embossed panel that was left over from last year's card-making. The snowflake embellishment was, yes, cut at Emily's at least a year ago.

Wow lots of leftovers used. I too have a stash of die cuts, I even have a full card base in my stash. Super cute snowman in the snowglobe. I also like the second card it's hard to use a sentiment as a focal point. Awesome job on both cards.
Lovely! Jo x
