Peaceful Snow


Happy Wednesday Everybody!  I whipped up another Christmas card for today.  I have a goal of getting about 10 Christmas cards completed this July.  We shall see how close I come. ;)  This time around I thought it might be fun to try using some designer papers that were meant to be "Christmas" and some that were meant for "July 4th".  Let's see what happened...

So what do you think?  The red papers are leftover from this project and the two different snowy papers are from my Christmas stash.  Happily, the silver snowflake is a tag from an old Kit Club Kit (from my LSS).  Have you ever seen Whose Line Is It?  They all get points for the sketches, but the points don't mean anything.  Same thing with Kit Club.  :)  We get points for using old kit, new kit, "pain and suffering", and it's all in good fun. 

This was totally pain and suffering free to create!  Since this says peace rather than being holiday specific we can send it to one of our friends who doesn't celebrate Christmas.  We each write notes in all our cards and we don't like to leave out any of our friends.  This one is probably headed to a newly made friend that lives in England!  Do you have any cards that travel outside of your country at Christmas?  It's so much fun to give & get mail from other countries!!

Well, this card is flying to these festive gatherings:
Festive Friday- Snow theme
Moxie Fab World- Mixy-matchy style 
Sweet Sunday Sketch- Challenge 188

I have good news coming about Cad, be sure to stop by tomorrow!!!!
