Cute little snow-people by Vince B. from Crafty Moments is a freebie - as are all his images! He has some really fun images and I encourage you to check them all out! I really liked the idea of the blank card that they are holding up and being able to stamp or write anything I want.This is a quicky New Years and Thank you combined... I am sending them in place of Christmas cards that I never had the chance to make. Now that is really a shake your head in disbelief, cheap [two in one], multitasking card! Heavy sigh. I am so trying to get some kind of card to all my relatives and friends before Valentines day!

Oh Ginny, you do make me laugh, I bet your New Year resolution is to have all your Christmas cards made in time for posting in December 2014. I love the way you are resolving the issue with this wonderful multi tasked card though .....and I'm sure that no one minds when they receive a handmade card from you as your cards are always so special. I love the messages your happy snowmen are delivering in this delightful card.
ReplyDeleteRegretfully we are not able to include this entry in our Challenge #194 draw as it exceeds the number of non Stitchy Bear image entries permitted. However, it's been a delight to enjoy. Best wishes for a Very Creative 2014. Ingrid xx ( OSAAT Team )
