CTD223 Winter Thank You

Love these colors that Joan has picked for us this week. To me, they're so perfect for masculine birthday or thank you cards.  Check them out...


Here's my card...


I pulled out my fun Papertrey dies (dies are so fun, aren't they?), paired them up with a "thank you" sentiment from Flourishes' "Inside and Out Thank You" set that was just released in Deceber, and did some embossing on the snow and tree (using some new toys from SU).  Some dew drops (yes, I know they're old, but I still love them) and twine finishes it all off.

My "close" colors used were SU Kiwi, SU Crumb Cake, SU Vanilla, and Prism Paper Tawny Dark.

Be sure to hop around to see what my CTD sisters have created for you today or you can click on over to the Color Throwdown blog to see everything all in one place.

I love how you did this card using the colors. Those colors are so nice together. I love how you did the snow drifts and embossed them with Swiss dots! I just bought that die set a couple of weeks ago and I am so glad I did after seeing your card.

Your card is lovely Denise!! I like the way you used texture to make the various colors show. The tree and snow look great - letting the deer pop, and letting your crumb cake be in the bg. Great job!!

All of it began in an american city termed Quarterly report the First Group traveled the world along with the first head of lambs to strike Hawaiian coast line in 1788. The first Merino lamb, that have been Spanish language, came from Africa. Two men through the labels John Macarthur and Samuel Marsden purchased sheep in 1797. Many years after that Australias potential to develop made of wool grew to be apparent, so Governor, Chief R H California king started transport fleeces from Macarthurs flocks while others to The uk for assessment.
