Warm Winter Wishes...

Hey there! 

It's kinda hard to believe that we are here at the final day of 2024 already. What a year it has been, filled with a mix of good times, health scares, the loss of beloved pets and plenty of coloring and creating. The highs and lows are a part of life and I definitely feel like I've had my fair share of both in the past twelve months. Here's to looking ahead with hope for whatever 2025 has in store for us. 

This last card is another faux postcard... what can I say, I'm slightly addicted, LOL! I stamped this happy snowman and squirrel from the Snow Buddy Like You set onto the Postcard pierce plate from The Greetery. I added lots of little postage accents from the Postal Modern and Pretty Postmarks sets that are also from The Greetery, while the postage stamp is decorated with a cute squirrel from the Bountiful Blessings: Apple Harvest set. Once everything was colored and I airbrushed in the soft blue background I added some large decorative snowflakes throughout the design by stamping them and heat embossing in white. I love how everything comes together to create a pretty winter post card that is sure to brighten the snowiest of days.  :)

Here's to a creative and colorful New Year my friends!
