Merry Monday #91, Snowmen or snowpeople

Happy Sunday morning folks!  I love these easy days!  Doing a little laundry, sitting around in my lounging clothes...doesn't get much better than this!  Eventually I do have to get ready to pick the girls up from being with their father, but other than that, my day is free!
 
And for some more good news:  I start a new full time job tomorrow!  I'm so excited, and a bit nervous!  Wish me luck!
 
Anyhow, on with the Merry Monday card:
 
This cutie is from Whimsie Doodles and is called Snowman Cocoa.  The sentiment is from another image set called Cocoa with Friends, that Melyssa was offering for free over the holidays.  My intention was NOT to use so much yellow on this card, as I really don't see it as a "holiday" color, but once I colored the mug yellow, there seemed to be no turning back!  I thought I should keep the layout simple, as I was already overwhelmed by the yellow!
 
Well, as it's now afternoon, I'm gonna get this linked up!  :)  Thanks for stopping by!

ETA:  How could I forget to link up to Hazel's Christmas Extra??
