Merry Monday Snow Swirled

And here we are back at Merry Monday time again.  Is it just me or are the weeks going by faster?



Lesley gave us another fabulous sketch this week.


I went with a monochromatic color scheme again.  I've always loved Old Olive and Whisper White together.

I'd love for you to visit the rest of the design team and see their fantastic creations.



All supplies are Stampin' Up! unless otherwise noted
