Merry Mittens

I know, I know.  It's been a while since I posted last. I have less than a week before holidays and it's a busy time.  :-). Anyway, I have a card to share that I made for the current Merry Monday challenge.  You're supposed to use mittens somehow.


I actually don't have a mitten stamp or die cut so I made my own.  I just drew and cut them out.  Here take a look....


I used some fun paper from Recollections Holly Jolly paper pad.  It's hard to see but the red parts are glittery.  I added some dimensional snow to the cuff part.  Then I used some yarn to make my string and bows and "hung" my mittens using some mini clothespins.  I secured the mittens with some foam dots.  I'm also going to link up at Keep it Simple where the theme is "warm".  I figure mittens keep your hands warm in the freezing temperatures that we are experiencing here right now now soooo.... :-)

I'm going to take a quick moment to welcome a new follower.  Sheila Cmachado!  Welcome and I hope you enjoy your visits here.  :-)

Well, that's all for now.  I'll be back in a few days with probably my last post before our holidays.  :-). Thanks for stopping by and have a lovely day!
