So happy....


One of my friends had given me a thank you card that I really liked. She used plaid paper, snowflakes and a cute snowman skating. I liked it so much, I thought I'd try to make something similar.

Her snowman image reminded me of this little skating penguin I had. I dug out some plaid paper from my collection for the card, and also punched out some snowflakes from the same plaid paper. As you can see from the snowflake, the other side of the plaid paper was blue. So I added some bashful blue behind the image. I also used a couple of dew drops on the snowflakes and some glitter on the skates and hat. The sentiment is from SU's The More The Merrier. Inside I stamped thank you.

I think I might make a few more but with different colors of plaid paper!
