Warm Hugs

I don't know what the weather is like where you live,

but it's been unseasonably warm here in

Northern Illinois.

Today, the temps are in the mid 40's

and not a sign of snow...well, yet.

I'm not sure if we will have a white Christmas

this year, but I'm ok with that.

The reason I mention it is because I have a

card to share of a 'wintery' nature but I haven't

a single 'real' snowflake to show for it!

I have been enjoying being the

December Guest Designer over at

and am happy to share this little card with you.

I have been playing with the 'Snowflake Flourish' set

from SNSS and with this card, I decided to focus on

one of the tiniest stamps in the set along

with the beautiful sentiment.

My focal point is a snowflake die from Spellbinders

cut from 'Blitzen' by BoBunny.

I hope you will stop by the Sweet 'n Sassy Blog

and join me there tomorrow with a brand

new project!

Rubbing it On with Bo Bunny

Happy Monday!

It's the start of another week...one day closer to Christmas.

This past Saturday night, I had a chance to play around

with a set of new rub-ons from Bo Bunny that I picked up

on my last trip to Archivers.

I don't use rub-ons all the often, but every now and then,

I like to play with something different and something

that gives me an opportunity to whip up lots of cards

all in one go.

All of these cards are pretty self-explanatory.

What I love about rub-ons is that, when you patiently apply

them, the finished surface is so smooth, almost like

it's printed onto the surface.

I just added a stamped sentiment and a little bling

and that's it.

Here are a few more cards using different images from the set.

So that does it for today.

I hope you will make plans to stop by tomorrow over at

the Sweet 'n Sassy Blog.

I will be sharing another post there as December's Guest Designer

and I'm really looking forward to it!

Thank you for coming by The Open Window.

Let me know you were here, make sure there is an

email that I can respond to and I will pop by to say hello!
