Make It Monday and Merry Monday




Danielle first MIM : Great Job Danielle!

This is a little busy for me but , I kinda like it!
 I made my own stencil from this little snowflake for the background on the above card. Thanks Jill GreenwoodGirlCards

I used a few removable glue dot so the snowflake will come out easily .
You can use any  kind of tape: just make it less sticky by sticking it on your cloths a few times then it wont stick as much.

I saw some stationary that you could buy with a removable round snowflake: I decided to make my own.This was so fun and easy to make. I added some foam tape and glitter. The snowflake comes out and can be hung on a tree or used as a gift tag.

For some reason I cannot get a decent photograph of  this red card. 

All the products used on these two cards are from Papertrey Ink! Thanks for stopping by. I hope you have a wonderful day! 

See if you can make someone smile everyday! :)

My Two Feet Deep stamps and dies are in Wisconsin right now. :( Your snowflake is fabulous and Ii love that i comes off to go on the tree, did you just adhere it with foam tape? You rocked these cards my friend.
