No People Like Snow People



Hi, it's finally Friday. Recognize the stamp in today's card? Yep it's the December giveaway snowman! I liked it so much I also got it for myself! I made the card for the Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge this week (MMSC30) (There is a link to the website on the right, just click on their logo) They also added a twist this week with a theme of Wings and Things. I went for a primitive or vintage feel to the card. The heart and star are sizzix dies. The holly is a punch. The snowflake dies are by cuddlebug
Have to do some Christmas shopping and wrapping and decorating over the weekend. Yikes, it's getting close!
Hope you had a great Friday. Thanks for stopping by. Until tomorrow...............

You asked me if this Tri-Shutter-Card on my blog is made with stamps or with Paper..
all stamps Sue...and the background is painted with watercolor.
