A Birthday Card and Snow in my Craft Room






Happy Tuesday everyone.  We are on the countdown to winter break, and I think I am looking forward to it as much as my daughters.  Even though we don't celebrate Christmas, it will still be nice to have some lazy days with less running around.

I have a card today for this week's CAS(E) this Sketch CTS #57, using the colors from this week's ColourQ cQc #220.  I am also submitting to this week's Simon Says Monday Challenge to use a stamp.

I pulled out an old favorite for this card--Hello Friend--remember that one?  I love these flowers and the way the sentiment is incorporated into the flower image.









It may be a sunny 74 degrees outside here in San Diego, but in my craft room, it's all about the snow.  I have another tag set here, this one using one of my favorite images from Friendship Jar Holiday Fillers, as well as a style I have been seeing a lot of lately--two tags layered--a stamped top layer and a patterned paper layer peeking out from under.  I am entering these tags into the following challenges:  Curtain Call:  Sweet Snowflakes, CAS-ual Fridays CFC 123:  Let it Snow, Addicted to CAS:  Snowflakes, Simon Says Wednesday Challenge: Let it Snow and Simon Says Monday Challenge to use a stamp.





I'll be back later to post the supplies.

Thanks for Visiting
