*MCS Monday* Let It Snow!

Hi everyone!

*Edited to Add: I went back and added more bling! Couldn’t help myself.

 I’m testing out a new way to upload photos… this one is linked from Photobucket. Apparently WordPress.com doesn’t like linking to Flickr! pics, so let me know how it looks!

 

This card features the Let It Snow! stamp set by My Cute Stamps. I used an emboss resist technique here, and I think I like how it turned out. Next time I’ll wipe away the ink from my embossed image using a baby wipe (like I normally do). I was too lazy to get up and get some more, so I just used a rag I keep on hand in my craft space…It definitely didn’t get rid of the tint of the ink. Anyway, talk about a quick card!

I hope your weekend was full of fabulousness… I had a great time. :-)

Happy Columbus Day! (I’m off from work!… Yippee!)

*Hugs & Love!*
