Enjoy

I made a card last night for Nicola's 3rd sketch. I got this image in a swap from AnnMarie. Isn't it the cutest little image? I love it!


The card front is a glitter mat stack that I got from Jana! I love opening the stack and letting the paper inspire my color choice. It's fun. The "enjoy" is a $1 Michael's clear acrylic stamp. The scallop circle was cut using Mini Mongrams on my Cricut. The circles were cut using my Coluzzle. I SU ticket punched the card front and added brads to the corners. The ribbon border is from Michael's.

Here's a photo taken right outside my front door yesterday morning. I stuck a 12" ruler in the snow. It's showing 8 1/2", and I have to tell you the spot by the front door was the lowest of what we shoveled! It was A LOT of snow to clear off the sidewalks and driveway! Yuck!

Thanks for stopping by! I hope you're having a great weekend!
