Jingle Belles Week 6 - Baby it's Cold Outside

JoWeek 6 of the Jingle Belles! Yippee!! And I'm a teensy bit late to the party. I think I may just be squeaking in under the deadline. ACK!! But, I love playing along, so I had to gather up some stuff to play this week, it's just so fun. :)

The prompt was "Baby It's Cold Outside" - "make cards or tags that include ... scarves, mittens, hats, ear muffs ... or some fuzzy warm felt (or perhaps all of the above if you are so inclined)".

Would you believe I don't have a single stamp with a scarf, mitten, ear muff, or a winter-type hat on it?!?! HOW IS THAT HUMANLY POSSIBLE?! *rolls eyes* I went out and BOUGHT some cheap-o felt today, just so I could play this week. I kid you not. I am really lacking in the winter-y supplies I have come to realize. Please don't judge me when you see Christmas cards with the Easter bunny on it, m'kay? ;)

Anyhoo...back to my card! I found some really cute Doodlebug Designs paper a few weeks ago at some little scrapbook store I happened upon, so (of course) I bought it. It's bright, & very, very UN-me. :) Also it's very, very shimmery. It kinda made me happy. I like that in a paper. I used that paper as my main focal point, if you will, then threw a bunch of other stuff together. Used a felt snowflake, and a couple of felt scalloped pieces on the sides. Ohhh! And I found an awesome sticker sentiment and the little snowman, too! He's wearing a tie. Close enough. ;)



I stink at getting all the details in a photo so here's a close-up of all the prettiness in the card:



COOL, right? :) The green scalloped piece and the white sparkly scalloped piece are both felt, as well as the snowflake. Not a ton of felt, but it's some. I could wrap it in felt, if anyone wants it. Heehee.

So, that's my card! Hope y'all like it. I promise to hit everyone's blogs & comment soon! :)
