I had to make a new card for the Ways to Use It challenge because the first card I uploaded was previously made for another challenge. This time I chose "calendar." I picked this embossing folder up in Tuesday Morning for a whopping $2! TH folders actually emboss quite deeply, and I noticed that some of the white core was showing after I embossing the blue cardstock. So I sanded some more of the top, and it sort of looked like snow! So I just added a couple of snowflakes and a sentiment, and I was done.

Wow, I've already saved this to My Favs. I love everything about your wonderful card. Your little story was great too. I hope you don't mind if I CASE this for Christmas, highlighting 25th. If I start now I might actually achieve something. LOL. My Favs gallery contains so many of your cards, thank you Lois.
