Enjoy the Season

Happy Sunday!

I don't know about you but I'm always am behind on my holiday cards. Each year I swear I'm going to get ahead but find myself falling behind rather quickly.
Not this year!
I've made a few cards through the summer but it's time to get the ball rolling and I'm committed to doing at least 4 cards a week between now and December 15th. Yep, I'm giving myself a deadline.

Yesterday I stopped into the LSS and picked up more paper. You can never have enough, right?
Well this is some new My Mind's Eye. Love the fun bright colours. I'm not too much of a traditional red and green card maker. Not that I don't like them but I prefer to use blues, pinks, yellows....whatever tickles my fancy that day!
Speaking of the LSS....
I can't bring myself to buy much more than paper there. The prices they have on the stamps is ridiculous....omg!
Being in retail, I am always price comparing and let me tell you, if you can order online directly from MFT then I say do it!

I adore the Pure Innoncence wintery images and had a difficult time deciding which one to ink up.
In the end I went with the Flurry of Love.
The sentiment comes from a WTG set called Winter in the City.
The Jumbo Scallop Die was finished off with some pretty red rhinestones.
Anyway, onto my card....

Thanks for stopping by today!

Oh...I love the big snowflake with this darling card. But stop making cards with snow on them. I am so NOT ready for that season to begin again.
