Let It Snow (two times..)

Are you getting ready for Christmas?  According to Marcel, it is time to decorate because he has seen "glow-e trees" outside.  So "Mommy, when are we going to decorate?"  I love how he is describing our neighbor's houses who already have their Christmas lights up!  He doesn't quite understand that it is over a month until Christmas and is absolutely mesmerized by any of the commercials on TV about Santa and presents.  I think we he has said he would like just about anything in the toy store!  (of course, with a big emphasis on all things Legos!)

I have two fun challenge cards to share with you today...both with a snow theme!  The first is for the Just Us Girls color challenge:
Ingredients:  SU So Saffron and Basic Play Paper; Basic Grey DSP; We R Memory Keepers Tag; PTI Buttons and Twine

And the second is for the Play Date Cafe Challenge.  I love how smoothly the PTI felt cuts in the Sizzix...really is smooth.  I love this big huge BasicGrey Snowflake die!
Ingredients:  SU Cherry Cobbler Paper/Ink; PTI Christmas Tags 2010, felt and Circle Die; BasicGrey Snowflake Die; Crate Paper DSP

Today is my Wednesday...work week is at the mid week...looking forward to a four day weekend!

Oh my, these are fantastic! I especially love the bright blue snowflake. In fact, it kind of reminds me of glow-e trees outside! What he said is so cute, and so true!

Love these snowflakes! I don't know why it never occurred to me to use felt for a snowflake! Must try!

Fabulous snowflake featured cards, Lynn!!! I too have seen glow-ee trees but I can't even begin to get organised with it all yet! LOL!
Have a super Thanksgiving if I don't pop by before!
Hugs,
