Miss August's Theme is Cool!


On the 28th of each month, the Calendar Girls blog group has a special monthly challenge that is hosted by one of our members. The hostess gets to choose the theme and all the members create a card or project based on that theme.

This month our hostess is Paola (a.k.a. Sweet P). Because she was tired of the heat and high humidity, she chose a "cool" theme - we are to create anything that begins with the word snow. Well, that's easy....








Yep, I used a SNOWman (or is it a SNOWgirl?)!!!











Here's the inside of my card:





I'm really excited to see what the other Calendar Girls created! You can check their blogs, too - you'll find the links in my left sidebar.


Thanks for stopping by my blog today!

You always have the perfect papers to go with every image. I've got to start decorating the insides of my cards too. It looks so fancy with pretty paper inside.

Another very cute Christmas card. It's such an adorable snowman and with such a fun and cute cup (it's so precious with that cup with the heart on). I think the layout on your card is awesome and interesting. The ribbons and small buttons are also great details.
