This card was driving me crazy. It took a while for me to get it right. I still may have done things differently (if to do over again), but I'm happy with the final result :)

----- -------- AUTHOR: Heather Wright-Porto TITLE: Simple V-Day Card (Cuttlebug) DATE: 2/02/2008 10:40:00 PM ----- BODY:

This is such a cute card but probably the simplest I've ever created. We made this card at my friend's workshop, fellow demonstrator, this past weekend (again, she prefers not to be mentioned). I love her designs and wanted to share them with you.

This card again is simple but cute, however you can modify and embellish it however you desire.
I may alter this card by adding some hearts in Pretty in Pink before embossing the hearts with the Cuttlebug.

----- -------- AUTHOR: Heather Wright-Porto TITLE: Snowflakes and Snowman DATE: 12/14/2007 06:48:00 AM ----- BODY:
Can you tell I love snowflakes and Snowman? This card is filled with all types of snowflakes and uses the Frosty stampset that is due to retire.

Cardstock: Shimmery White, Vellum (or I used Snowflake vellum I bought from Michael's)

Stampsets: The Snowflake Spot, Frosty, Snow Burst

Inks: Lavender Lace, Pixie Pink, Black

Other: Cuttlebug and snowflake embossing folder, dazzling diamonds, two way glue, Dimensinoals, Cricut machine for die-cut snowflakes (which you could have used a punch for as well)

Instructions: Stamp snowman on cardstock, color and cut out. Stamp snowflakes on the vellum using the 2 other inks (purple and pink).. Run the vellum through the Cuttlebug - embossed effect. Add two way glue and glitter to the "hill" for the snowman. Adhere all the pieces and add more glitter to snowflakes as desired. Lastly, add the die-cut or punched out snowflakes.
