FEELIN' FROSTY!



Here in the High Desert of California, it's been between 105 and 110 degrees F, with a lovely dose of monsoonal flow to make us truly miserable. So, I was feeling the need to cool off, even if only in my mind. This cute little Stampendous Snowbody Frame is the perfect image. You KNOW he only hangs with the "cool" crowd! I kept the feel of this card cool, by Copic coloring with various shades of white, blue, and minty green. I mixed some white Fun Flock with Ultra Fine Crystal Glitter for some shimmery fluff. These darling papers from Little Yellow Bicycle fit with the snowy and swirly theme, as did these fabulous Crystal Clear Class A' Peel Super Swirl stickers. Now that you're in a thoroughly frosty mood, how about checking out what the rest of the cool kids are doing? Here's a list:




Remember, once again we are all offering the opportunity to win some blog candy in the form of some stupendous Stampendous images. Just leave us all some love, and each of us will be randomly choosing a winner. My winner for this week will have a chance to stay frosty through the rest of summer, and into fall and winter with the newly released Cling Jumbo Snowflakes.



This is a fabulous set, full of creative possibilities...cards, tags, home decor, gift wrap and bags, treat containers, etc. Add some great new Fran-tage Elements in the form of Aged Silver, Aged Gold, Chunky White, Shabby White, Shabby Blue Embossing Enamels and/or Pearlized Mica, Shaved Ice, and Silver Glass Glitter. So much fabulously cool textures, colors, and sparkle! For added inspiration with all of these, check out Fran's latest Youtube video HERE.

Wondering who won the prize from last week's post? Congrats to....
