Let It Snow

Brrrr...its frigid outside!  I seriously cannot believe how cold it is today being as though it's been in the 60's most of the week, but nonetheless, it IS that cold!  So as I nursed this horrid sinus infection and stayed inside where it's nice and warm, I whipped up another card for Christmas.

Love, love, love this little girl from Karen's Doodles - isn't she just precious?!  I remember being a little girl and waiting for the snow to fall just so I could catch some snowflakes on my tongue!  One of the best parts of it snowing don't you know!  And now, being a mother of three girls, I love seeing them outside sticking out their tongue just waiting for that first snowflake to fall in hopes of catching one.  The circular sentiment is from TLC and I thought it fit the image and the papers perfectly.  I inked it in some blue/green Chalk Ink from Studio G and added some Diamond Stickles.  The little glittery cable I found on the floor in my house - probably something that was on one of my daughter's Barbie boxes.  As soon as I scooped it up, I confiscated it and luckily it worked perfectly for this card :)

Wherever you are, I hope that you are staying safe and warm :)  Have a wonderful day and thanks for stopping by! :)

  15. Oh Sara, this card is just too precious! You have colored her perfectly...great use of the stickles on her coat, boot tops and ear muffs. And I just love your dp's and that great sentiment. I'm with you...I remember trying to catch snowflakes on my tongue....unfortunately my kids are too old to do it anymore.

  16. Your card looks like my daughter last week! We had snow flurries with great big flakes for about a half hour and she was trying to catch flakes on her tongue. Your card is just adorable!
