Embellish Snowflakes Color Challenge

Happy Friday, dear friends!

How are you all doing? Today I went to my Christmas lunch for work- that always seems to kick of the holiday season for me. After eating way too much, I hit the gym and then got around to making a few cards. What a perfect way to spend a Friday!

Tonight I have a card made for the Embellish Snowflakes Color Challenge. I thought this one was going to be a piece of cake….boy, was I wrong! I think it’s that creative slump getting to me. {That’s my excuse and I’m sticking by it!} I decided to go outside the regular card and make a pocket card. Isn’t it fun?? I can see sticking a gift card to the bottom of the removable panel- wouldn’t that be a great surprise? Hmmm….I think I’ll play with that idea….

How are your Christmas preparations going? Has the weather changed where you are at? I am *finally* starting to get Christmas presents together. I am finished with one brother, now onto the other five members of the family! {Oh yes, and ALL of my friends. Good grief, I’m now even close to being finished!} As far as the weather in Washington- it’s been freezing! There has been ice in some areas, and some snow in others. For those of you who don’t know, my stamp area is in my garage. Boy is it stinkin’ cold in there! I have a heater, but it really isn’t cutting it anymore. I was planning on making a couple more cards tonight but I just couldn’t stand the cold any longer. :(

As always, I would love to hear from you! Hope you have a great weekend!
