There is No Business like Snow Business Blog Hop - Jan 7, 2012

Hello Friends and Welcome to my blog! :)

I am in two hops today so make sure you are in the right one....thanks...

There's Snow Business like Snow Business with all the friendly snowman putting on a show for you today. All I need is a cane and a top hat to start singing now or be Frosty the Snowman and shout "Happy Birthday"!  It may be Frosty and Cold outside, but its warm inside as long as you stay bundled up sledding through our hop!

We have a wonderful line-up for you to either grab your tobagon, sled, sleigh or ski's to check out the craftiness -- grab that hot cocoa and don't forget the marshmallows AND whipped cream, soft blankie, stay warm and snuggly and check out how we build a snowman before he melts!

  Begin at the beginning of building Frosty by stopping by Miss Kari. And here is the list below in case of snowfight ensue...hehe...

Here is my project: I did a simple tag due to my sore shoulder...I took a manilla tag that I won and TH distress with purple ink and then I used a favorite snowman stamp that I have owned forever and stamped on white cardstock and then cut it out and then colored it with my water color pencils and then I stickled the snowman and then used the blue pearl stickle and use that as my snow color although you can't see it well here then also use it on my one small snow stamper and then popped the snowman up on the tag so he can stand out a bit....then used fringes of yarn, twine and voila! :)

We do have some snow candy for you today for stopping by but you need visit all the snow drifts along the way and leaving a warm snuggly comment but just watch out for the yellow snow! Just check out the ribbon, chipboard snowflakes, clear stamp along with a light mauve stamp pad and just some added bling bling and crystal stickles!!!! A great way to build that personal snowman of yours!!!


In the meantime, let's get on with the SNOW . . .
Your next snow drift along the way is talented Susan
Warm Snuggly Love and Hugs,

I just love snowmen and all the glitz you can do with them. Love the idea of using Stickles to make the sparkle of snow.

I hope your shoulder heals quickly.
