Pink Snowflakes?

DSCF5559

Okay, I admit it....I had so little time to stamp this weekend, and SO loved Tammy's little snowman gatefold card here, that I shamelessly CASE'd it!!!  Hers is a little more embellished than mine, but honestly, I did this about 10 minutes before we left for my niece's wedding on Friday so there was no time for anything but a quick sprinkle of glitter:

I have been dying to use this Cosmo Cricket Jolly by Golly Mini Deck, and I thought this funky pink snowy paper would be great paired with the retired Mr. Twigster!  His pink snowflakes are stamped in Melon Mambo, as is his Nestie mat.  I used the remaining piece of the paper on the inside:

This sentiment and snowflakes are from an Anna Wight Whippersnapper set called Snowman for Peace.

This style of gatefold card is so easy and fun, but I have never done it lengthwise!  What a great idea Tammy had to do it that way.....simply score your 4 1/4" x 11" cardstock 2 3/4" from each end! 

Lynn & Charlie are back with Lynn's guide dog, a beautiful black Lab named Dutch!!!  You can read about them here.  They will be staying here for two more weeks, and then I get to attend their graduation ceremony!  I hope to have some pictures of all of them to share with you.  We have been so blessed to have them....Charlie said when they came back, "Ah, now I feel like I am home!"  That made me feel so good!  Thanks for visiting today!
