Peeking Snowmen

Hello Blogger Friends! Thanks for taking the time to stop and visit with The Charmed Life Blog today.

Wow - I have been absent on my Blog posts for awhile. We went away for 4 days last week to San Francisco. And prior to that I was busy getting my DT commitments finished before I left.

We went out to visit with my son and his family. My precious 8 year old granddaughter is playing basket in a YWCA league. The team members are from her 2nd grade class. They don't keep score and have very limited rules. But it was fun just being able to watch her play and have fun.

Then of course we played with her babies all the rest of the time. It's non-stop baby adventures from the time she wakes up until the time she goes to bed. She only takes breaks for lunch and dinner. She tells her Mom that no one plays babies like Grandma (lol)! I guess that's part of my role. And this wont last much longer maybe a couple of years at the most.

Now I am back home and getting back into the swing of things. It's a sunny but cold day here so I do want to try and get a walk in at some point. But before that I want to share my card for today.

This one I made a couple of weeks ago as a thank you for a gift that a friend gave me. The colors were from the Splitcoaststampers color challenge #722. I was the hostess and I chose gray granite, mango melody, and rich razzleberry for the color trio. Optional was to use designer paper.

 I started my card by embossing the background with the Stampin'-Up "softly falling" embossing folder. My fence is from the CottageCutz "peeking puppy" die and the snow accents are from the "snowman lane" die.

For the snowmen hats, I used mango melody and rich razzleberry designer paper. I decided to use a cloud to carry my "thanks" sentiment. I cut it from rich razzleberry cardstock.

Well that's my card for today. So until next time...…...God bless.
