At The Library, the book is The Snowman by Raymond Briggs.
It's the perfect book for reluctant readers - it has no words! You might also know the film, with the song 'Walking in the Air'.
By coincidence, while I was making cards for this challenge, I discovered that Cardmaking and Papercraft magazine had free The Snowman images available to download. I printed this one off, coloured it with Promarkers, cut it out and stuck it over a stamped night sky (Avery Elle) .

For my second card I used a very old and well-loved stamp by Funstamps. I coloured him with Zigs, cut him out and stuck him to some dry embossed pearlised card.

Beautiful cards with the snowmen!!
Your second snowman looks very happy that it's Christmas and snowing. Thanks for playing along with our Pick a Previous from 2017 Challenge. Look forward to seeing you around 52 Christmas Card Throwdown Challenges again.

Two awesome snowman, starry cards Marina! How great to get a free image for your first card. It's so fun with them flying across the starry sky! And your second card with the sweet snowman and dotty sky is adorable! Thanks for sharing your first card with us at CAS Christmas!
Two gorgeous cards! I really must try and play along, Jo x
Fabulous cards Marina and your colouring of that digital image is perfect!!
Hi Marina! Here I am! You have a beautiful blog, I’m going to follow you!
Have an nice evening, Mariken
Great card! Thank you so much for playing along at I ❤ Promarkers! Hope to see you again next time!
Everyone loves a happy snowman. Thanks for joining in at 52CCT
Two lovely cards! I thinks it was a good choice to accent your second snowman with purples: it's a non-traditional but perfectly appropriate Christmas colour. The layout is great too. Thank you for joining us at Retro Rubber Challenges this week.
I don’t know the book, but I know the song, and I especially love the version where the singer, now grown up, sings along with his younger self. It’s really beautiful. I’ve been making mostly snowman cards lately, maybe I’ll get to make one more.
Absolutely love the film and absolutely love both of your cards x.
These are both so charming and whimsical!
I LOVE both these snowmen, Marina! Books without words are such fun and so good for the imagination! Wouldn't it be fun to fly with a snowman? The second snowman is so joyful and fun that he can't help but make everybody happy! Thanks so much for sharing with us at CAS Christmas!
Marina, these are two super sweet images and so wonderful that the images are free. Great scene with the star studded sky and the snowman flying by. thanks for joining us at CAS Christmas.
thank you for sharing your starry night cards at CAS Christmas. What a great deal to get the image free, I always loved that book, the snowman is so fat and cute!
Super cute!!! Thank you for joining us at Cardz 4 Guyz, good luck!!! Amy DT
Quel charmant et adorable bonhomme de neige Marina, il me rappelle plein de souvenirs, merci de jouer avec nous chez 52cct, biz
I think that book is amazing and I have several copies, thanks to my mother the librarian. I love the snowy background you created for your very happy snowman. Thanks for joining the last Retro Rubber challenge of 2018, hope to see you again in 2019. Claire DT
Lovely cards. I especially love the purple! Thank you for joining us at Sweet Stampin' this week. Sammy-x
Both snowman cards are adorable, Marina. I’m not familiar with the book, but based on your card with the beautiful starry night sky behind them, it looks like a fun read. Thank you for joining us at CAS Christmas Star challenge. x
That snowman is perfection ... congrats on your win at Retro Rubber.
Love the snowman flying in the sky with a little boy. Thanks for joining in the Celebrate challenge at The Male Room. Looking forward to seeing your creative projects in the future galleries again.
