Christmas a time to make magic

I wanted to try a little something different on my card so I many times use digital paper, but this time I printed just strips of the paper along with the sentiment on the white cardstock as my background.  I wanted a CAS card for my non-traditional colors.  It was fun and easy to do.  The snowman is freebie that I got from Melonheadz quite some time ago, and the sentiment is from TLC.

Life's a beach go with flow

It's official - it's summer.  Today it's hot and humid here.  So it would be perfect to go to the beach.  The sentiment is from TLC.  The image is a freebie that I got from Melonheadz.  I put Glossy Accents on the sunglasses and some pearls on the earrings.
