So Cute...

My friend, Susan, like most of my crafting friends, is very good at helping me to spend money on more lush craft stuff!  Which friend isn't?  A couple of weeks ago she told me about these amazing 'on the shelf cards' by a very talented designer (Carol Clarke) on Crafts U Print.  Well I went to look and oh my I love this style of card - I bought lots of her designs to make up.  You will be seeing more of them very shortly.  However to start with here is my oh so cute snowman - perfect for the challenge at Craftyhazelnut's Christmas Challenge which this week is cute.  
Also thank you so much for organising these challenges Hazel - so appreciated especially as last week I won - yeah - first prize in ages!!!
Here he is again sitting on the windowsill this time...

and this is a side view so you can sort of see the mechanism.

and the back with a place to write a message...

Now I just need to make up the others and put them somewhere safe ready for next Christmas!!  Hmm famous last words seeing as I've just found five cards I made last January that were nowhere to be seen at Christmas when they were needed!

Other challenges...

• The ABC Challenge - no embellishments allowed (all snowman is printed - only addition is glitter)
• A Snowflakes Promise - anything goes with a winter theme

Hope everyone is having a great week and not spending too much time out in the cold.  It's really freezing here today - I need a holiday somewhere hot!
