Fruitcake Winter Wishes!!


Hahahaa! That's quite a title isn't it?? Today's card features Fruitcake papers by Basic Grey, that's why! I also used one of my favourite stamps from Whiff of Joy!!

This is how I had to get around yesterday during the snowstorm....in a sleigh!! Not really, but almost!! I did have to venture out into the storm to go to work and after a nervewracking drive, they closed the library and I had to drive home again!!! Can you believe that?? Oh well, at least I had the night off...and I got to stamp!!! hehe!!

Back to the card....the base is a 6x6 Baja Breeze square and the dp is Fruitcake, as I mentioned. As you can see, this is a rather large stamp, so it has to be on a big card. I coloured them in with my Copics and sponged around the edges of the main image with Baja Breeze ink. I pop dotted them, added a WOJ sentiment, some brads and those lovely, glittery acrylic snowflakes!!



Well, I'm off to work all day today! I hope they've plowed the parking lot by now! Hope you have a wonderful Saturday!!!

Kimmie your card is AWESOME! I love it! We are getting some snow here today too! That's crappy that you had to drive in the snow and turn around and go home in it! That's one thing about winter I dislike is driving in the icky snowy/icy weather! But you are right...there was stamping time for you! Yahoo!

Gorgeous, Kim! I love this WOJ image and the BG fruitcake pp is yum-o!!! You are so right about Charlotte's sleigh and her little reindeer friend, it would have come in handy the other day, lol!!!
I did got to leave work early after all and did a little stamping too, smile!!! Oh, I have to say that I just love my new snow tires!!! If all this snow keeps up I will definitely get my $$$$ worth out of them,smile!
Well, I hope you and yours have a very Merry Christmas and all the best in 2009!!!
Hugs,t
