You Make My Heart Happy

This is my card for this week's Merry Monday Christmas Challenge #91 - use a snowman or snowpeople on your card.  I used the cute MFT Happy Heart Snowman and the sketch is Jen's Deconstructed Sketch #134.
Deconstructed Sketch 134
I did swap out the heart elements for the sentiment.  The snowman is stamped in Mememto Tuxedo Black ink on X-Press It Blending Card and colored with Copics. I used MFT Circle Stax 1 and 2 to cut him out and added the Basic Black mat. I sponged Bashful Blue ink around the edges while still in the die.  I paper-pieced the heart with Real Red CS and mounted the panel with foam dimensionals.  The DSP is from Lawn Fawn's Peace, Love, Joy 6x6 pad, all matted with Basic Black.  The Whisper White panel is embossed with a Cuttlebug Snowflake EF.  The card base is SU Baha Breeze.
 
I am also linking to Craftyhazelnut's Christmas Challenge Extra.
 
ETA:  My card was a weekly pick on Karen's "Stamps At Play" blog.
