Good Merry Monday morning!
This week Kathy has challenged us to make a Christmas card using something
that would keep us warm.
I recently bought the Cable Knit Embossing Folder that's in the Stampin' Up! Holiday Catalog.
It made some warm looking punched mittens from snippets of red cardstock.
I used a snippet of velvet ribbon to the cuffs and
some snow swirling around.
Check out what the rest of the Design Team has done to make you feelwarm and cozy.
Then I hope you'll join us at Merry Monday.
Thanks for the visit and special thanks for your comments.
Enjoy!
