Snowy Days

Snowy days are good days to stay safe inside playing with paper! 
I've got three cards for you today for different challenges.  

Card #1 
 My first card is for the Merry Monday Christmas Challenge.  My dear friend Marcia is hosting this week and she chose this wonderfully colored inspiration photo:
Those colors!  Yes, please!!  I used one of those darling snowmen images from Art Impressions Sparkle & Cheer.  

Card #2 
This card is working double time for two challenges.
I was inspired by one of Melissa Phillips cards to create this card for PTI's Create Along With Us challenge.  It also fits in perfectly with Double D's Challenge this week drawing from the different colored aprons and the vintage mixing bowl as inspiration.  A Bowl of Sunshine is just what the doctor prescribed for snowy days!

Card #3
The last card was made for the Poppystamps Snow Day Challenge.  I used Poppystamps Stitched Majestic Mountains, Cute Fawn, Curious Fawn and Stitched Cloud Trio from Memory Box.  The little gift and sentiments are from Poppystamps Christmas Friends.  

I also wanted to give a shout out for the Cut Cardstock Design Team Call.  If you'd like to receive quality cardstock products for FREE, check out the design team call here.
