I have a super cute and easy peasy card for you this evening. I’m playing on my favorite challenge Casology and the cue word this week is COLD… makes me think of the sentiment ” Baby it’s Cold outside” I used the MFT October Card Kit Cooler With You which included some fabulous dies as well…..I used my Clarity Stencil brush with stormy sky distress ink to give my background a snowy feel …….. I added some falling snowflakes…….. Well my crafty chica’s I’m wrapping this post up gotta get myself in bed for my big day tomorrow……. Have a happy crafty week my friends enjoy my take on the cue word..
