Good morning, Friends! The last Thursday of 2010! WOW!! I can't believe that we are ready to launch 2011! Where does all this time go? Time flies when you are having fun! And I am having so much fun being a part of the Create with Connie and Mary design team! I have been challenged to get out of my box by being a part of this wonderful team! And this week's challenge is to create a project with a snow theme. Well, I thought that since Christmas was over most of us might be sending out 'thank you' cards. So I combined my snow themed card with a 'thank you' card (and I used an older Clean & Simple sketch).

I started with a card base of Crumb Cake. Then I took another piece of Crumb Cake cardstock and sponged it with Crumb Cake and added a piece of Chocolate Chip designer paper from the Neutrals paper pack. Then I took two different sized snowflakes that had been die cut using the Norther Frost decorative strip in Very Vanilla and layered them together using a glimmer brad. Then I added a some Very Vanilla seam binding ribbon. I cut a strip of Very Vanilla and stamped the greeting from the Thank You Kindly set. The snowflake is popped up and so is the Crumb Cake panel. Super simple!

So there you have it! Time for you to check out the Create with Connie and Mary website and get inspired by the rest of the super talented design team! Then get to creating your own wonderful creation to share with us! I can't wait to see what you all do with this great challenge! Have a Happy New Year!!
