No, Benz, this is not a card for you. I already sent you a card. Instead, I'm dedicating this to you since you sent me this wonderful snowman paper. I really LOVE it. I used it on an earlier card, but most of the cute paper was covered up with a large snowflake and hardware, so I wanted to do another one letting the snowmen be the highlight.
It should have been an easy card, but for me, it always takes that little something extra that can be the time consuming part for me - to help make it look balanced and special.
In this case, I finally decided on the red ribbon at the top with the 2nd ribbon on top that puffs up on both sides ~altough hard to see on the photo~ and has a glittery pearl snowflake with a red rhinestone in the middle.
The rest is pretty basic. I just jazzed up the paper a little with some extra bling in the center of the snowflakes on the paper and added my greeting with the large oval and scallope oval SU punches with diamond stickles around the oval.
Oh, I popped up the first layer on dimensionals.
Unfortunately, I have 2 other people I have to add onto my list, so Anne and Benz, we still have a few more to go before I can call it quits on Christmas cards this year. You'll have to suffer with me!! LOL!!
Thanks for the visit and let me know what you think if you have a chance.

Oh Pam, how sweet to dedicate a card to me. I feel better already. I do love that paper, also. I like that you added the red bling to the snowflakes. I guess I can now suffer through a few more of your Christmas cards since you did this. Although, I don't know about Anne Ryan. I really like your ribbon and that sparkly snowflake. I've done the MMSC and will upload tomorrow if not blown away tonight by storms. Thanks, Pam..you're a dear.

So glad you created another christmas card, fruitcake. Do the math. By my count, you've uploaded 43 christmas cards starting back in August. Not that I'm counting or anything, but I might suggest you do the addition yourself to see what I'm talkin' about over here. Anyway, it was sweet of you to showcase benzi's RAK paper. I dont think I've seen that, but it's really delightful and it needs a card to show off how sweet it is.
