Update, 2-21-08 It's very rare that I link an old card to a current gallery, but today, forgive me, I just HAD to link this card. Today's Ways to Use it challenge was to make a window card, and this one sure qualifies! I love window cards, and there must be close to 2 dozen of them in my gallery, but I promise I won't post any more old cards here!
Thanks for looking; I hope you like it!

This is for the Technique Lover's Challenge, Faux Wood. I made the *pegged wood* floor using the Weathered BG stamp, then dragged a toothbrush over it dipped in brown reinkers for more texture. I drew on the lines and nails with markers. The *wallpaper* is stamped and colored with markers. The red C'mas balls are copper brads I colored with a red Sharpie marker. The scattering of snow on Frosty is done with *Snow EP* by Stamp LaJolla. I colored his hat and scraf, added CE, and glitter. Everything is popped up on Dimensionals. It doesn't show in the photo, but there is a blue sky with evergreen trees stamped behind Frosty in the window.
Thanks for looking!
