FMS343 Vintage Snowmen


Happy Wednesday, everyone!  I have a quick little Christmas card today; I let the paper do most of the work on this one!  It uses the FMS sketch from Jen T:


and some fun coordinating vintage-style papers that came from.....I don't remember!  I think I bought this as a kit on Etsy!  Sorry!  Anyway, here we go:


My card base is Soft Sea Foam and I used a Papertrey die for the "Holiday", cut in Real Red. The words are stamped in Tranquil Tide, and I added a little baker's twine bow and some sequins from my stash!


I just love how that snowman is waving, right by the "hello"!  A happy coincidence!  The inside uses a little scrap of the printed paper and a sentiment from SU's retired Warmth and Wonder:


I am also entering this in The Merry Christmas challenge of Anything Goes!  Thanks for popping in today!  Enjoy your day and be blessed!

Some pool time fun from last week....although it's going to rain today, no pool for us today!!!:

Adorable Christmas card, LeAnne! Great choice of paper and diecuts! You always make such amazing cards and this one is no exception! I also love the vintage feel to this one! Nice picture of the pool last week! Yep, rain & clouds today but it's going to get hot after today so i'm sure you'll be back at the pool soon! Have a great day! :)

Such pretty papers and I LOVE that sentiment die cut! Great card for mass production, pinning this one for future case-ing.

I recognized that paper right away! I have...or maybe had it too in a 6x6 pad. Can't remember either who it is, but it's cute and works perfectly on your delightful card!
