Hmmm...maybe it's the break in the weather that has me thinking about Christmas? It was a brisk 66 degrees this morning and Joey was whining that he was cold!
This card is an advance look at the "Christmas Lodge" stamp set that is in the upcoming Holiday Mini Catalog (Sept 1st- Jan 3rd). The card is actually all Basic Gray and Whisper White--it looks like black ink on the computer. I added trees from "Lovely as a Tree" on either side of the lodge--they are the perfect size!
The 12"x12" Silver Glimmer Paper is also a sneak peek--so sparkly!
I've been busy creating cards for the Stampin' Sisters meeting tomorrow so I have lots of projects to show you....stay tuned! :-)








What a marvelous card. I did not buy that stamp set, but after seeing your card I may change my mind.

Simply exquisite card, Melany! You have done it again! And, I can't wait to see what is to come!! Guess I'd better hold off on my order until I see the projects you have in store. : )

Wow...absolutely gorgeous Melany! Lots of glitter and shine while basically monochromatic. I can feel the chill coming off the screen...lovely since its rather warm outside here in Southern Oregon!

Melanie this is such a beautiful card. I like how you've woven all the ingredients together and it gives that off that "fresh snowfall feel". TFS.
