Snow Sweet!

Good morning!  It's a cold and windy day here in Missouri, and there's some talk of snow, so I thought I would share this card that was made with the cute little Penguin with Skis stamp from The Scrapping Cottage.  Really, we're just getting in to winter, and skiing is a favorite winter sport of many.  Never tried it myself, but this little guy is rearing to go!!  
I got to use some of my new Crate Paper (6x6 stack) from the Snow Day collection for this card.  32 sheets of double sided wonderfulness is what I found when I opened that stack, and I just LOVE it!!  The colors are non traditional and fun, and I can't wait to play with it some more.  The corduroy buttons were a perfect match to the gold in the paper, and I added some handmade icicles for a fun effect.  This little fella was colored with Copic markers, and the white polka dots on his scarf were added with a white Gelly Roll pen.

I'm so glad you could stop by today!  Have a blessed day and happy stamping!
