Let it snow!

Morning!
Well, guess what?  I won something at the Auctions again last night.  I've got to pick it up later so I will show you soon.....it's a item ripe for a little altering!

I also have a few commissioned cards to show you too with a definite LIS feel to them but first today I thought I'd share another Christmas card with you....from times gone by.


For this card I have used a SN stamp Snow cozy, paper by Bobunny Tis the season, MS punch vintage lace, SU scalloped boarder, circle and scalloped circle punches.  Ribbon, buttons and charm from my stash.
This jolly snowman always makes me smile and he is really fun to colour.

Are you making your Christmas cards yet?
I know lots of you are.  I envy you but Christmas wouldn't be Christmas without the mad rush in December to make all my cards....LIS definitely the way ahead!  Every year I plan to be more organised but end up getting later and later.

Today I have another order to complete, my auction item to pick up then an exciting afternoon planned with my ironing board.  The high life!
Have a super Thursday, back with more tomorrow.

Can't wait to see what you have bought. Love your card all the green and red just right for Christmas. Oh do miss my iron and ironing board - NO! But by the time I get home and do washing I will be using it a lot,

Great card Erika, very cheeky, cheerful Snowman, beautifully coloured.
Looking forward to seeing what you have bought.
Started my cards only because the ladies at the Card Class wanted Christmas Cards and I was trying out some ideas. I would rather give the money to Charity than send out cards.
Did that last year after Hazel had all her treatments. I got so many calls from people wondering if everything was ok. They are the ones that will get cards this year
Hope all the "high" life has not given you dizzy spells....
Hugs

Will check back to see what you got at the aucion!
In the meantime I hope the ironing pile is dwindling!

This is such a lovely card. I like the crisp red and white contrast and the wonderful snowman image!
