Merry Monday with a Winter Scene

Hello my friends!!  We are now in the middle of November and I hope you have a good pile of Christmas cards in your stash, we still have a few more weeks to play along at Merry Monday Challenge
 I remember as a young girl using buckets of water and throwing it on our patio...the next morning we had ice and us kids could "skate"...more like sliding with our shoes, but so much fun!!
Nina is our hostess this week and she is asking us to make a card with a winter scene.  Head over to the Merry Monday Blog and see what the design team has made for your inspiration!
stamp:  MFT Pure Innocence Ice Skater
Heart Hugs, friends!

Sweet skater, Colleen - just love how you embellished her clothes! She's perfect on the oval of ice too! Great idea to just throw some water out to create your own ice rink. My dad actually built one in our back yard with mounds of dirt for the edges and several layers of ice built by spraying it with the garden hose. We thought we were in heaven!

Darling little girl in her cute skating outfit. I do that now on our patio too, but not by choice! It's from overnight moisture, then freezing temps in winter!

Cute, cute card Colleen and love your memory of ice skating with your shoes on your frozen patio! My dad actually made us a skating rink one winter and it was sooo much fun...the whole neighborhood was at our house!! Hope you're having a wonderful week! :0)

This sweet skater is so cute, Colleen! Brings back memories of skating when I was a girl. I didn't have a pretty skating outfit like this though. It was all snow pants and heavy coat!
