Joyful Wishes

Hello Sunday morning!

I am up early today so that I can squeeze in my 2nd card for the Pixies Snippets Playground- Week 100.

The blue dotted background paper and the snowflake embossed white card are from my snippets folder. I also used a tiny small piece of patterned paper to paper-piece the snowman's scarf and ear muff. I have this wonderful tingling sensation every time I use the tiny-winy piece of paper/ card from the snippets folder. Somehow I get this "I've saved the world" feeling when I use up scraps!! Do you have this feeling? Or is it just me? Ha ha!

I just love Lawn Fawn's Making Frosty Friends stamp set. The snowmen from this set is just so cute and the fact that you can dress up your snowmen just brings back my childhood memory of playing paper dolls!

I followed the sketch from Seize the Sketch #9 for my card. Another brilliant sketch, which I think I may just have to use a few more times!!
 
I am also entering this card to crafts 4 eternity: R#152 - Non Traditional Christmas. I do like blue, pink, purple, apple green and silver, the non traditional colours, for Christmas. In fact, my Christmas baubles are in all those colours! ^_^

Enjoy the rest of your weekend!
