Sand Snowman card

A sand snowman seems so warm and nice.  It's not warm here in the northern plains so I would enjoy making a real one but will have to settle for making one into a card for someone that lives in the southern half of the country.

Warmest Wishes card

This is the time of the year that I do start wanting warm wishes, temperatures, cocoa...  Mostly temperatures being up here on the northern plains.  I do love snowmen though and was happy to find another new to me stamp company that indulges my love for them.

Cool Christmas card

I love these snowmen...I picture they are in the Vacation Family Truckster station wagon (although I did not color it in that obnoxious pea green and it has no wood panels that was in the movie).  I put it on a distress ink background so I had lots of coloring fun.

Cozy Fires, Warm Hearts card

This card always makes me wish I had a fireplace.  I would have a fire burning every night during winter.  I have a feeling the cats would be curled up in front of it instead of the heating register.

Birthday Girl Basketball card

This is a special order birthday card I made for a coworker.  A perfect reason to buy new stamps and I love this athletic girl (took me back to when I played basketball).  I used her school colors - go Moorhead Spuds!  The heart is purple because that's her favorite color.
