Snow, snow and more snow???

The Merry Monday Challenge sure had it right this week - at least for people in my little area of the world.  We got a lot of snow again - but it's March - so it won't last long.  However, it is in the forecast for later this week.

Some snow hills have been added for this little guy to stand on and I've used the Cloudy Day embossing folder and one of the Tea Lace Paper Doilies.

For the big snowflake, I flattened one of the Soda Pop Tops through the Big Shot, pressed it into the Versa Mark Pad, dipped it in Pool Party Embossing Powder and heated it.  The snowflake inside is from "Four Seasons" and to emboss it I mixed some Pool Party and Silver Embossing Powder.  I will certainly remember this little trick when the season comes around!  To finish things off I added a wee bit of Dazzling Details around the edge of the paper just to cover it up.

Hope you have a Terrific Tuesday - we have Parent/Teacher interviews tonight so I won't be in my craft room....oh well - it's spring break next week so I'll have lots of time then.

Thanks for stopping by:

Thank You Snow Much!

Yipee - 1) It's Friday....2) I have the morning off to play in my stamping room before going to school... 3) it's the last day of school...4) Life is peachy keen....5) - It's Friday Mashup! day.  What more can be said?!

I used today's Friday Mashup! and Splitcoasts Color Challenge for this week to create this card to give to our school secretary from my husband and I.   She took care of our concert programs (for his band concert and my elementary concert) without a blink and created a wonderful display table at the entrance of the gym for the programs to be available.  I'm always appreciative of the people in the world who take initiative to do things while some of us have our heads full of other things at the time.

Today's Mashup! was a sketch and/or the use of watercolours.  The colours from Splitcoast were Calypso Coral, Wisteria Wonder and Lucky Limeade.  Not really for this particular season - which is what they were trying to move away from for the week - but a snowman can be dressed in anything so it all works out.  I thought this snowman image was perfect two because of the two little birds singing out their thanks!

I'm off to finish some more gift card holders and maybe do a bit of cleaning before heading to school.  Hope your day is fantastic and that someone helps you out in some way today.  Thanks for taking the time to visit.
