Snow Day!

It's time for a color challenge at Addicted to Stamps and More!  These are my favorite challenges so I was pretty excited about this one. :) I also used the sketch at Try Stampin' On Tuesday.

I thought these colors would be perfect for a winter card. I know, I know...I'm not to keen on making winter cards when it is technically still summer here, but my new Snow Day stamp set was begging to be inked with some Marina Mist. :) 
This stamp set is SO easy to stamp with. I first thought I might need my Stamp-a-ma-jig for all of the little parts, but it was really easy to line up everything without it, thank goodness. I am not so handy with the SAMJ sometimes. :)  I wanted the snowflakes to be in the top left corner so I used the debossed side of the Crumb Cake cardstock. Everything else is just simple stamping! :)
