This is a card I made for the Mini VSN Sketch Challenge. This is my story:
1. I wanted to name this card Synchronized Skating Snowmen. I didn't know how to spell synchronized. Why is it that you have to know how to spell a word to find out how to spell a word in the dictionary! My photographer stinks at spelling!
2. I don't buy the fact that snowmen like this would fall over in the snow...they are built for the snow! That is why I put skates on them and made them synchronized skating snowmen...look how perfectly the are in sync! When one goes down, they all go down.
3. This is a birthday card for my friend Judy to give to her when we have her birthday lunch on Friday. She just bought a cuttlebug and I got her some embossing folders and wanted to show her how the snowflake one looks made up on a card!
Happy Birthday Judy!
Thanks Charlene for this awesome paper and ribbon you sent me for my birthday!

This is just too cute. Bet they wish they had picked a skating partner that could stay on his feet. I like that polka dot dp and the crystal rock thingys.

Cindy, these snowmen have made my day. What a wonderful card! I love the way you added the jewels to the cuttlebugged background, and of course the polka-dots.

Oooooh, I love this. I never thought to put the *crystal rock thingys* (LOL!) on the cuttlebug BG. Will have to try this. Your snowmen look so cute all synchronized like that. Love the color combo of your card too.

This is SO cute with the six snowmen on it! (why have one when you can have a herd!!) wonderful colors - the tan, blue and white look great together - love the glass baubles on the cuttled panel. I'm sure this will be a well received card by your friend!
and I'm so proud of you! you did a VSN challenge!!
