Winter Blues

Brrrrr!
 
 
It's so easy for me to joke about the freezing weather sitting here in 100 degrees,
but come next Spring, I'll get pleanty of teasing about how I'm sweatin' it out!
 
 
The sketch challenge at
 this week is a terrific one!
And they are taking part in the "Hope You Can Cling To Challenge"
Of course, it wasn't until I had my sketch card finished that I saw that!
Now I get to make a few more cards during the course of October
for the challenge at Splitcoast!
 
 
I haven't had this TCM stamp long, and this is my first chance at inking it up!
"Let it Snow"
And, rather than just straight cutting the edges of my background paper, I chose to
wiggle the scissors around a bit. All it did was make my paper look crooked. 
Next time, it's paper cutter only!
 
Well, I love the little snowman image, and hopefully, that will be the main
focus when a recipient gets this card!
I plan on sending this, along with a few others before the end of the month,
to the MD Anderson Cancer Center. 
I plan on going through my box of previously completed cards and throwing those in the package, also.
This is something we can all do to help the cause and clean up all these cards we tend to "accumulate" over time.
If they've been posted before, no reposting and entering the contest with each!
Just remember, this is for the cancer patients!
 
Thanks for visiting me today,
and please, it's Breast Cancer Awareness month!
Do something to help your fellow BFF's,  "breast friends forever"!
