Dashing Through the Snow

Hi! I'm the designer over at Card a Day Blog today and the theme this week is Christmas. I was at a fair in PA this past weekend and I picked up a few gifts from there for Christmas. So it's never to early to shop and never to early to start those Christmas cards.
 This is a very simple card to make but the impact is huge. The card base is some grey cardstock I keep on hand (JoAnns inexpensive cardstock) Then the white layer wiith a scallop border and punched above the points with a 1/16" hand punch. the a layer of cream and a background layer of lightblue snowflakes from my stash.
Now the snowflakes are pre-made and I think on the card it is a Jolees pack I got last year. Now this is a pack that I gotten in a win last winter and will use it this year. But as you can see the bought embellishments can make a card real simple and quick when you need one fast.
The stamp is from SU and the inside has a Merry Christmas stamp for SU too and some snowflakes scattered around it.
Thanks you all for stopping by today and seeing things from my corner of the world....
