Merry Monday #59




Hello, blogger friends!  It's been awhile since I've posted a card on my blog, hasn't it?  Life got very busy at work, and I had very little spare time to make cards.  I missed my card making.  I found out on April 1st that the store where I was working was going out of business in Fort Wayne.  Ahhhh!  It was not a cruel April Fool's joke, either.  We started with a 25% off sale, and then went to a 40% off sale, and we were all crazy busy.  The last week was spent packing up the store, and then we sold fixtures.  I'm sad that this chapter of my life has closed, but now I'm looking forward to more time to make cards and scrapbook and maybe even do some traveling to see the grand-kids.   

So, this afternoon, I turned to Merry Monday sketch #59, and I came up with a snowman card.  I used SU's Snow Much Fun stamp set, Little Yellow Bicycle Winterings pattern paper, whisper white and real red card stock, and my oval die cuts.  I stamped the snowman on water color paper, and used various Copics to color him.  I also used a little Marina Mist ink to sponge the edges of my banners.  

Thanks for stopping by today.  It is wonderful to have time to stamp!
