a Christmas card and something cute

I used a sketch for Sugar Bowl #25, but didn't use the stamps they wanted me to so I didn't enter their challenge! Here is the card that I created using this sketch :), something different but am happy with how it turned out and did I mention I LOVE the new xmas cuttlebug folder.

It snowed here yesterday, and my son E* went outside to play in the little snow we had...he created this little snowman on the top of our slide on our deck. He asked me to take a picture of this lil guy for him, wanted me to show my friends on my computer :)! He also made a bigger snowman, and used a snowman wooden kit for it's face but then he tore it down shortly after he made it. I wasn't fast enough to get a picture of that one, it was really good :)!

fun Christmas card

Last night, I wanted to make a Christmas card using the new Cuttlebug folder that I picked up the other day from Photo Memories. LOVE this folder, it is bigger than the other one's and covers more of your card :D! I also used a stamp that I haven't used in a little bit, then I used the puffy white paint on my card but had a bit of a issue with the bottle it comes in.

What I mean by an issue is that when I squeezed the bottle (not hard) that the top which was screwed on really well popped off and the puffy paint went all over me. This is when the chaos erupted in my house, just as that happened all 3 kids wanted something to eat or help with something. I told them to look at me, that I had to clean up the mess but then I would help them...not good timing I guess :p! I got the card finished though, and used my new light tent that my dh made :)!

Inky Hugs,

Catherine
