CSAYL Challenge #58 - Buttons & Bows

Don't you just LOVE Fridays? I'm ready for the weekend and it's a JAMMED packed one! But I've got some FUN stuff planned so that's always good! As you know on Friday I showcase a Christmas card for the Christmas Stampin' All Year Long Blog. Our challenge this week is BUTTONS & BOWS and we are being sponsored by SASSY CHERYL'S!!


I was asked to use UP IN ARMS digital image for my creation - um, hello...OKAY! It's another CA-UTE snowman...and we all know I LOVE snowmen!!

I printed this digi on the new CABOODLE CARDSTOCK from TAC...Let me tell you - this paper is FABULOUS!! LOVE using it with my Copics...the color is more vibrant than using my Georgia Pacific and I don't have the "bleed" issues as much!! If you've been looking for some wonderful paper to use with your Copics well look no further!

This fabulous layout is curiosity of Sweet Sketch Wednesday Challenge #59. They always have such wonderful sketches to use. Of course, I had to improvise a little in order to add my image, buttons and bows but it worked out perfect!

I hope you'll play along with us! If you do, you could win a $5 gift certificate to SASSY CHERYL'S store!! Hop on over to the CSAYL Blog for all the details and to link your creation - you have until Thursday, July 29th! GOOD LUCK!!

Thanks for stopping by today!! I hope you have a WONDERFUL weekend :)

Love it! I need a new printer so I can use all the cute digi images out there. Is that a die cut that you cut the snowman "shape" with? I love that one!

Hi Michelle, I adore your card, the images and colours you have used. It's really really cute. I love the green organza ribbon I just love that colour and it goes so well with purple as well. Thanks so much for joining us this week at SSW and I do hope to see your work next week.
