It's Chilly Outside!

Wow, I can't believe how nice it is outside today!! I don't know what the temperature is but it's almost sweatshirt weather in Kansas. We have had such unbearable temps this summer and high, high humidity. So to celebrate the cool down, I thought I would share this wintery card. This fun image of carolers(set is called Carolers) from Wordsworth/Rubber Soul is so dang cute that I didn't think it needed too many other embellishments so I kept the card simple. I used a snowflake background paper from Rubber Soul also and embossed it with my Cuttlebug snowflake embossing folder. So I've got a double snowflake thing going on...you should try embossing some patterned papers, it's a fun effect! And the Cuttlebug folders do work in the Wizard, if you're one of the proud new owners of a Wizard. The focal image was colored with Copic markers in bright fun colors, the girls sporting red dresses and the boys in cool blues and greens. I cut the image out with an oval Spellbinder's Die Template and embossed it too. Then I mounted that on a red scallop cut oval. Placed dimensionals on the back for some added depth. Red stitched grosgrain ribbon finishes off the card. Memory Box note card.

If you wish to order sets and/or paper from Rubber Soul, simply to to their website and click on the *how to order* button for instructions. You can phone, fax, mail or email your order. There's a ton of fun new sets.......may I suggest an iced coffee and a day of online shopping? LOL!
