Brrrrrr....

I wish I was where this little guy is, cuz it sure ain't cold here... Oh well, I can still wish, can't I? If you're keeping up with my count, this is Christmas card #2!! So far, so good. I love it when a plan comes together! I think I can, I think I can..... Actually, I'm ahead of myself but that's ok. Last year I made close to 50 cards (all different mind you) and I was spending every weekend in October and November locked up in my craft room pumping out cards!! Of course now that I'm thinking about it, that's not really a bad thing, now is it? But I have to say, I don't like the stress of waiting until the last minute to do anything. I kinda get freaked out. I like to have everything all done and then I can sit back and enjoy the holidays. *grin*


This little bundled up cutie pie is from Whipper Snapper and I colored him with my Copics. I paper pieced his scarf with the same patterned paper as the background. It's from the Basic Grey Figgy collection. I matted the image and the patterned paper with SU Cool Carribean CS and used my Fiskars Apron lace border punch to make some fancy trim for the bottom of the card. I punched the snowflake and then added some sparkle to make it look cold. Finally, I added a brad to the top of his little beanie hat and also to the center of the snowflake and then finished it off with a button and bow. I just want to poke his little belly and hear him giggle, don't you? Have a great day!

Supplies:
Rubber Stamp-Whipper Snapper; Copics; CS-SU Cool Carribean; DP-Basic Grey Figgy; Punches-Marvy Snowflake, Fiskars Apron Lace; Ribbon-SU; Button; Brads
