Christmas Card Club - For Someone Special

Good morning to you all.  Although not really so good since it snowed very heavily  yesterday and quite a lot overnight too!  I think we will have to do without a newspaper today because to get to the next village to the shop we have to go down a very steep hill which is rarely ever gritted.  It's not worth the risk to get what passes for news these days.  Luckily I did my food shop yesterday so the cupboards and fridge are full so we won't starve. Mind you, I'm sure it will soon be gone.

Anyway, I cannot believe these two weeks have gone so quickly.  March already!  It was Zoe's turn to choose our theme and she said to make a card for someone special.  Now that is almost an Anything Goes challenge.  The other girls will be posting tomorrow but I have another DT card due then and I don't like posting two on the same day.

My Card


Recipe
6" square base card made from Papermania card stock
pink pearlescent card - Pennies Worth
embossing folder - Snowflake Lattice  Creative Expressions
topper - Pink Gem "Snow In Love"
pink pearls from stash

I decided once again to use some of the images I got from Pink Gem last year and didn't use.  They make really quick cards, and again I made it flat for posting.

Take care and keep warm!!

  13. It's a delightful & cute image, and I love that embossing design that you've placed it atop. It's a perfect "Someone Special" image, and particularly the sentiment. Glad that you didn't go out for a paper and chance a fall. Rightly said, the news these days is not worth taking the risk. Hope the snow is melting a bit for you today. Happy Sunday, Mother's Day, and have a great week. TFS & Hugs.

  15. This is sooooo sweet and I dearly love snow people - you know they say that there is no people like "snow" people!
    I am green with envy over your embossed background. It seems like all my embossing folders are so small. Your card definitely melted my heart!
