Snowman in a Hot Tub Mug

Brrrrrrr...it is cold outside. It was a whopping 22F this morning at my house and a relatively balmy 30F when I reached Seattle. Yikes! I love the sunlight we're getting and don't mind the cold . . . as long as I'm not in it--LOL.

I must say I'm quite jealous of this snowman in a mug. I can totally picture myself melting away in a hot tub--yes, please!

I'm entering this in Daring Cardmakers January Elemental (using colors, snow(man), texture, block letters), House of Cards Add a Building or Colors, Time Out Winter with optional white on white twist, The Male Room #51 Anything Goes, and Less is More #309 Dimension



The Details:  YNS Warm Christmas Wishes, Savvy Warm Wishes die, Sizzix Tim Holtz Knit Set embossing folder, Gina Marie Designs Scalloped Stitched Frame, Copics, Scor-Tape

  1. Another clever, fun, fabulous card, Toni! Your snowman-in-a-spa has me smiling (I've decided he is 'not' melting...just relaxing!). I'm quite intrigued by your Gina Marie frames. and the knit embossing folder! I hear you about the cold; it's -26C here today. Staying inside!
