I think time is getting away from me lately! I should have posted this one at the beginning of the month but I sort of got side tracked. Sometimes I get focused on something and everything else falls by the wayside. Maybe it just didn't feel like January here in the Midwest lately. Where I am we haven't had much snow - in fact, we haven't had to dig out the shovels even! Yesterday we got a light coating of snow - and the temperature has dropped just as winter should be and I got inspired to make my January card.
If you've been following me you know I am working my way through this set of month stamps from Serendipity. I think they are just too pretty to break out for just a calendar or scrapbook page. What a great way to make a special birthday card, or just to celebrate the dayl! Each month has little images that are perfect for the month they feature. January has snowflakes, mittens, hat and a scarf. I thought it would go perfectly with this ice skating paper! I blinged it up a lot because after all diamonds look like ice right? I added a bit of cozy warm velvet ribbon in there too!
Thanks for stopping by! Tomorrow is the Serendipity Stamps challenge - see you then! Have a beautiful day!Jeanne

Jeanne that background paper is so perfect for the theme of January, love that you added just the right amount of sparkle too.

Wow, that background paper looks like it was made to go with the January stamp! And I love the bling--perfect combo of elements!
Perfection!!
But then...
they always are! :)
Love that paper...
like it was made just for this stamp!
And we haven't had much winter either...
a little ice...
uugghhh!! :(
I kind'a wish it would snow...but just for a day or so...
otherwise I'm trapped with the kids and I literally lost a piece of one of my eyes a couple years ago due to snow days so they're very hazardous to my health...
so just a day because it's so pretty on the first day! :)
What a beautiful card. I love all the icy bling, your gorgeous coloring, and that cozy velvet ribbon. Your patterned paper is just perfect for this card.
This is beautiful Jeanne~I love the DP, blues and snowflake bling!
