I actually finished stitching this project at the end of 2017, but recently created the FFO (fully finished object).
'Let It Snow' kit #021-1058 Janlynn Designs for the Needle. I swapped the 18ct aida for 28ct White Linen and stitched away.
When I went to visit my second mama at Christmas last year, we went shopping at AC Moore. These sleds were on clearance so we both scooped up a bunch. Factory Direct Craft also sells these same ones, if anyone is interested.

The stitched piece fits perfectly and the little sled looks so sweet. Great FFOing.
Turned out super cute Meari!
What a sweet finish, Meari! I have the sleds but have never attempted to finish a design this way -- maybe someday. : )
Meari,
Your snowman sled is adorable! And, finished to perfection, as usual!
Marina
Wow, that's so adorable!! Love the blue backing and mounted on the sled too.. absolutely beautiful
Oh, that little sled is darling, Meari! I love how the colors show up so well on the white sled--much better than those brown colored one :) Did you spray paint it or just use acrylic craft paints? Very nice job!
What a brilliant finishing idea and the design is ideal for it.
Wonderful finish!
Very pretty finish.
Fantastic! I envy those of you who can make these creative finishes.
Thank you for visiting my blog .
Wow the way you finished the design is beyond my imagination.
I always thought of these small kits as made for beginners and they look bulky when finished.But you changed the whole outcome.
What a wonderful finish idea. I have painted these sleds, but I never thought to add a cross-stitch. This is so pretty.
I love your stitched piece and it's adorable how you finished it off! I would have never thought of that. So cute!

Oh Meari... that is simply adorable! I love that you added your cross stitch to the tiny sleigh. It makes for a unique and really sweet finish.
