Yay! My final card to meet my February commitment.
Really, the only reason I rated this a two is because of the fussy cutting involved. I took this sweet image from a card I received last year and popped it up over a background of snow drifts and trees. The mat behind it is cut from a gift bag I've had for at least a couple of years. now y'all know why I don't throw anything away I added a touch of Wink of Stella to the trees and snow, which of course you can't see, and adhered everything to a cream base.
As always, thanks for looking!

Shades of re-purposing and recycling!! Your snowmen pair and their cardinal friends seem to really be celebrating Christmas in style!! They look very much at home sitting in the snow drifts and layered on to - a Christmas bag!!! Wow, You really save everything, don't you?
Love all the evergreens covered in snow and the glint of Wink of Stella to make it all shine! Brilliant "recycling", Jody!! love this!!

You images are adorable Jody and I bow to you for all the fussy cutting, my least favorite thing and used only in emergency messes! Love the background you created for these two cute snowmen!

Oh I love re purposing stuff for beautiful cards. I am like you I hate to throw away stuff that can make beauties like this one. Super job on this one.
