Hidey Ho Bloggers!

What's up, my peeps in  blogland??  I see lots of Christmas in July things going on almost everywhere, so there is absolutely NO EXCUSE for getting the ball rolling, if you haven't already!  Speaking of Christmas, how about a card?

 
This is the card I made for my design team post on the Christmas Cards All Year Round blog...yes you read that correctly!  Here is the post where you can see my card, plus the stunners from the other Christmas Belles; here is where the July challenge is located, and the gorgeous creations from the Gingerbread Gals!  Thanks for including me in the fun Deanne!  All this DT stuff is so exciting to me, plus it helps me get my Christmas cards made!  I just wish my camera took better pictures...or maybe I need help editing them!  This one looks more "washed out" than what it really is.  The digi is Snowmen Trio from IMAGINE THAT! Digis By Kris.  Don't they just look like a happy little family ready for Christmas?  :)  I played it "safe" and used the pre-colored version, and then focused on the pink coat and hat of the snow-lady to make the rest of my card.  And yes, it's another shaker.  Surprised?  You shouldn't be...lol!
 
Challenges:
 
12 Months of Christmas Link Up #19:  AG or optional Christmas blooms theme
The Glory of Christmas #88:  2 or more patterned paper, or optional AG
Merry Monday:  Lori's Christmas in Summer link up...use a previous challenge you may have missed out on...I'm going with #210 (peace, joy and/or love).
