Designed 2 Delight - Christmas Snowman

This week's Designed 2 Delight progressive challenge was to use the Christmas Snowman digi stamp.  I've never been in the Christmas mood this early, but all of these Christmas in July challenges around the blog world really have me ready early.  That's a good thing since all of my cards go to Operation Write Home - we make blank cards for deployed troops to use to write home.  Our deadline for Christmas cards is October 31, so join in the fun NOW and get those Christmas cards made and mailed to an OWH shipper so our troops can wish their family and friends a Merry Christmas!

Challenges:
Designed 2 Delight - Free Stamp of the Month Challenge
Craft Your Passion - Christmas in July
Creative Inspirations - Christmas in July
The Rubber Cafe - Christmas in July
Digistamps 4 Joy - Christmas in July

Card recipe:
Paper: Cosmo Cricket patterned paper, red cardstock from JoAnn's
Tools: Nestabilities by Spellbinders, Bic markers
Embellishments: grosgrain ribbon from Michael's, bling from my stash, Tim Holtz Distress Inks (walnut stain), Stickles and Diamond Glaze
