Snow Much Fun!


I hope everyone had a great 4th of July weekend. Ours was pretty good. We had a little BBQ on Sat with some family and friends, got to relax on Sunday and then I went tubing down the Delaware river with some girlfriends on Monday. I also got a chance to make a few cards too. I have an order coming with some new things from the catalog so hopefully that will get here soon so I can make some stuff. Today's card does use some new stuff too. I used the Snow Much fun set. I figure since this set has been sitting on my desk, that I might as well start making some Christmas cards. It's never to early to start. I think I plan on having a Christmas in July (or maybe August) class where you can get a head start on your Christmas cards. I'll have more info on that once I make the cards for the class. But back to today's card. I stamped part of the snowman image on Crumb Cake cardstock. I colored him in with some markers and then used a q-tip to add some White craft ink to his body. I cut the snowman out and added dimensionals to him. I layered the oval on top of Island Indigo cardstock that was punched with the decorative label die. I like how this came out and I plan to try this again. The Soft Suede background is stamped with some doilies from Delicate Doilies. Then I added a piece of Baja Breeze cardstock that was embossed with the lattice texture plate and cut with the top note die. I added a piece of lace ribbon and then a couple of brown buttons that I had lying around. And as usual the sentiment was punched with the modern label punch. I hope you like today's card. Stay tuned this week because I will have a few more cards for you!
Be sure to check out the new catalog which is linked in my sidebar. Or course there is lots of great new things!!
