The Unknown Snowman - MYSTERY SOLVED!

Do you know who this cutie belongs too? I've searched every internet store and stamp site... and even eBay. I don't know who he is!!! He must be suffering from Amnesia because he can't tell me either. LOL!

Updated: This image is from Sunshine Designs - The Stamp Barn. Thanks leibetty!

I tried another Kittie bow. I've discovered that it's harder working with a stiffer grosgrain with a width of 3/8". This is a double bow. I actually did get the triple bow to work, but it was way too overwhelming on this card.

Sassy & Seasonal with a Kittie Bow

On the Rubbernecker blog, Kittie747 has some tutorials on ribbon ties and bows. Well, I attempted the triple bow. Somehow I ended up with a double bow! LOL! Good thing I didn't try a double, I would have ended up with an ordinary bow!

I also made this card for the 8th day of Christmas challenges on Paper Craft Planet.

I've received many nice and cute comments today on SCS about this card. But 2 people just cracked me up! They said they know some people who should get this card. I hadn't thought of that. I just think it's cute. I'm an owner of 2 cats. I know, they own me. But the gray one is always getting into mischief. So this image reminds me of her, Princess. I have some scrapbook pages of her on my blog. It can be found on the side bar in categories: scrapbook.

I can do all things through Christ....

I tried Julee's Mojo challenge again with the color challenge: black, vanilla, and sahara sand. (I changed it to kraft so it would match my ribbon.)

I'll probably try another one later. At this point, I'm not going to bed. I have to get DS up for school in an hour!!! I couldn't help it. I had so many creative thoughts going through my for all my blogs... mostly my teacher one. They have become a full time job! LOL!

New Verve set and a Mojo Monday Sketch

I used 2 techniques on the snowman: paper piecing and paper tole. The middle and top are popped up on dimensionals and the hat is popped up twice on dimensionals.

I only glanced at the sketch and went back to get the keyword.... oops. We were to embrace the white space and it's for a contest. So, I just might be using this sketch again. :)
