Christmas Card 2007

Well I was determined to finish up my Christmas cards this weekend and have them in the mail today (Monday). DH didn't believe me and said why do you insist on making them...just go out and buy some boxed Christmas cards. **Oh the horrors of that statement** grin.
The man has absolutely no clue that this not only gives me a rush but I've got a fortune invested in these stamps and supplies. LOL
I normally make three or four different card designs...but this year I decided to just mass produce one design. I just LOVE how this card turned out!
Isn't he the most adorable snowman yet?!?! I bought him from WhipperSnapperDesigns a few years ago and never had inked up this stamp. If you have never used WhipperSnapperDesigns stamps you really should...they ink up and stamp so nicely. Nice and crisp.
I bought the CB folder back in July and knew I had to use it for my Christmas card. Try to find this folder now. Ha! I used SU! WaterColor crayons and my prisma pencils to color the image.
Bazzill paper and the ribbon is CTMH organdy crystal blue...it really matches the blue paper.
The sentiment is from my newest favorite stamps....Papertreyink.com.
This week/weekend I will be working on teacher gifts and gifts for some friends. Will try to post the finished projects.
Did I mention that I will be going to see Mannheim Steamroller this Saturday night....I just love their music!
Thanks for stopping by!
