One seed can start a garden, one candle can light a room, one step can begin a journey, one conversation can start a friendship, one smile from a handmade card can lift one's SPIRIT!

Merry Monday ~ a Snowman theme

The challenge this week at Merry Monday  is to use a snowman on the card...can you believe I have had this stamp for over a year (maybe 2??)...it came from Paper Zone when they were shutting down and I got it for 50% off...it is a Hero Arts Stamp called "Share the Joy"...I stamped him (him...because I colored him in those blues and greens~ Ha~) on the card, then stamped him again and colored and fussy cut him out.  I die cut the snowflake with some new Glitzy Glitter paper I bought at JoAnn's...really cool stuff, I used the silver along the side of the sentiment paper also.  I stamped the sentiment with versamark and embossed with silver embossing powder. 
                                                      
Paper:  MME: Merry Little Christmas, DCWV: Glitzy Glitter, PTI white
snowflake die is MFT
copics
silver embossing powder  
                I hope you will play along and start getting those Christmas cards done!!
                We lost our power for about an hour...lots of wind and rain today ~ hope you all have a great weekend!!

Heart Hugs,
Colleen
