 Happy Saturday...

I had  a lovely crafting time with Peggy via face time today.  

I found my inspiration in two challenges. Simon Says -  Emboss it, and Fourseasons -February anything Winter. 

 


 I used Simons Refined Snowflakes EF, and die cuts from MFT -pierced fancy flourish, and IO Skates.  The skates had some surgery and rearranging to fit my vision, but they worked out nicely. The greeting is from Lawn Fawn heat embossed in white.

 

I hope you are all enjoying your weekend.  No football tomorrow, so I'll probably be crafting again. Thanks for visiting.

Oh, I was just ogling this snowy embossing folder at SSS - I resisted and now am sorry about that - it's gorgeous! An appropriate place to park those skates, Cat! Especially with that icy swoosh!
