SweetStamps #75: X-Mas Flap Card


Hi everyone-
I’m running a little behind today, I do apologize.
However, I am here to share with you the cutest non-traditional color X-mas card I have made yet.  I know I do sound pretty proud of myself!!!  LOL
Today at SweetStamps, we are challenge you to create a
FLAP CARD
This is my weeks sample:
CalypsoSS#75
Isn’t that Snowman the cutest??  When I saw him and I knew had to have him.  That is part of the reason I’m running late.  I ordered him last week and I was just waiting for my order to come in, because my heart was set on putting him on a card when I got him.  I love the way it turned out too!!!  Yeah!!!


Here is a link to a tutorial for a flap card. We'd like to see what you create, so come join in the fun! Remember to use a SweetStamps image on your creation to get an extra chance at winning $20 of rubber stamps from SweetStamps.com.
