Wintery Mojo

Hey there, everyone! Last night was my 12th anniversary and we went out to dinner at my favorite restaurant and reminisced on this wild and crazy journey we've been on. What a wonderful thing to know that my husband is my best friend and is with me every step of the way! I love this man! :)

Okay, on with the crafting. The busy-ness of the season has really zapped my motivation, and I really haven't felt much like crafting lately. Then I saw this fabulous little pack of free digi papers by Michelle Batton and 4 Shades of Blue and I just had to whip out a couple quick cards. I thought these papers would be awesome for a more masculine looking winter card for a couple of Mark's co-workers.



The sketch is this week's Mojo Monday sketch {Mojo118}. It's a fun clean & simple layout - perfect for all those last minute cards. I used the Winter Wishes digi stamp from the free Winter Mittens Digi stamp set. It's back for a limited time if you missed it in October. And there's a chance to win a Verve gift certificate if you make something with it, so head on over to this post on the Verve Blog for all the details!



The metal snowflake charms are from Making Memories and I used some Basic Gray cardstock for matting and Basic Gray taffeta for the ribbon treatment. Other than that, not much else to tell. An easey peasey design - just the way I like it this time of year! :)

Happy Anniversary!!! I've only had 2 but I love them!! It's a wonderful time to remember why you fell in love...even though you probably think about it often, it's a special day to focus on just that. Gorgeous paper and I love those metal snowflakes...oh, I have to tell you that yesterday when I was typing snowflake, I started typing "snowflower." LOL can you use that idea somehow? LOL
