What a fabulous winter card!! So many think of snowmen as Christmas cards, but if you live in a snowy wintery state, they are perfect for a few months!! LOVE the colors on this one Silke ;)

I love your card, Silke! Snowmen are a favorite of mine. They remind me of my mom who collected them.

Silke, this is awesome! Love the accent color of orange! Your snowman is just so warm and cute!
