Baby It's Cold Outside

Hi everyone, I know that this is a little early for most folks to start on their Christmas projects, but I have been trying to plan ahead this year.  Last year I started in November and was rushing to get everything done.  So I am thinking if I start now and do a little bit each month maybe this year won't be so crazy for me.  I have 24 Christmas cards as of right now that I have to send out (always some last minute ones pop up of course).  I can do 4 a month and take my time doing them and actually enjoy each and every one of the cards instead of the rush, rush, rush of the holidays.

Here is my first card. 

I used the Snow Friends cartridge.

The card is cut at 5 1/2" x 4 1/4" in white cardstock.

The brown mat is cut at 5 1/4" x 4".

The blue mat is cut at 5" x 3 3/4". I used the Cuttlebug folder Tiny Bubbles on the blue mat.

I used a corner rounder on all sides and all of the mats and the Swiss Cheese punch.

The snowman is from Snow Friends and is cut at 3 1/2"

and added a polka dot ribbon.

Hope you enjoy.  Thanks for looking.
