Sending Snowman Cheer

Hello Blogger friends! Thanks for stopping by the Charmed Life Blog today. It's Day 2 of my Christmas cards for 2025. 

Well, we recovered here in Pittsburgh from the first measurable snowfall of the season. Now it's just cold and dreary. Doesn't look like we will get much above 32° for the next week. My hubby delayed in doing his outside decorating for Christmas and now it looks like it will be delayed even more. 

But the inside is coming along very nicely. My goal for today is to get the tree up in the dining room and then place the greenery and lights around my other decorations. I put greenery on top of my china closet, on top of my cabinets and around my Nativity sets. I have 4 of these displayed. It's a lot of work but I just like how festive everything looks when I am done. 

Now onto my card for today. This one I made for the color challenge on Splitcoaststampers. Our colors were pool party, poppy parade, daffodil delight and lemon-lime twist for the color trio. Optional was to make it Christmas.

For my card, I used one of the Suzy Prints from Simon Says Stamp. They are designs printed on watercolor paper, and you can color with any medium. I used Stampin' Blends and Copic markers. I had to give him an orange nose - well because he is a snowman. I have more of these prints and if time allows, I plan on coloring them up. 

I topped the tree with a star cut from white glitter paper and added some glitter on the snowbank. I stamped some snowflakes in pool party ink to finish off my card. It's more of a CAS design that I usually do but at Christmas time a quick card is the way to go.

That's it for me for this post. So, until next time.....God bless.
