Faith was the hostess for the Stampin B's challenge this week and she asked us to make holiday/Christmas cards. Well....an order of new stamps arrived and I just had to get them inky. I love these tall, skinny stamps (probably because I am exactly the opposite!). I have a few holding flowers, but in this order I received this winter cutie and an autumnal one as well. They are by KST. I used my CB with the snowdots embossing folder on the pink and white layers. I paper pierced and used an EK Success snowflake border punch on the blue layer. I then placed a rhinestone at the center of each large snowflake in the border for some dazzle. I used a Martha Stewart punch to create the snowflake along with another crystal. A fairly straight forward card.Thanks so much for visiting my blog. I probably don't say enough how much I appreciate each and every person who stops by whether you leave comments or not.
For those wondering, my sister is slowly recovering from her back surgery. We have pretty much been able to get her settled and more independent. She still needs some help, but that is certainly to be expected for a while.
Wishing you a wonderful day. Now be sure to visit the Stampin B's blog to view the cards made by the rest of the team.
Also....a special note about out Stampin B's challenge....we are going to change our posting day starting in December. Starting December 3rd, we will post our cards on Thursday rather than Friday.

Great colors -- love the pink and aqua snowflakes!
You can use cuttlebug folders and piercing better than anyone I know. I aspire to be that skinny snowlady - yea, like that's gonna happen! What cute images, colored to perfection and laid out perfectly. Love it, Joanne!

Do you think if I stopped eating m&ms I might be skinny like this some day? LOL! What a fun and cute image! Your piercing, embossing and overall design are so pleasing to the eye. I often go to your SCS gallery for inspiration, my friend.
