Smiley from millan.netSmiley from millan.netSmiley from millan.net




Snow in September??? YEP!!!!!!!! That was 3 days ago at my house!!!! I'm not sure our Aspens will actually completely turn into their beautiful gold now that they've been frozen solid!!!! LOL But you know I won't be complaining!!! I LOVE snow!!! And what a way to welcome in Autumn to my mountain!!!!! LOL

With that in mind.........here is the ETSY Inspired Challenge Blog pick for this week, The Salty Cat. Modern metal jewelry, and I found these cute snowmen for my inspiration!!!!



What a perfect time to pull out some of my favorite winter stamps!!!! I love this snowman from the Gina K. Designs stamp set, Let It Snow. I'm working on consistently creating some CAS cards to s-t-r-e-t-c-h myself!!!! LOL And the Cuttlebug Snowflake Folder sure is perfect for this little guy!!! Although I sure couldn't resist adding some bling!!!
Now hop on over to the ETSY Inspired Blog for all the deets on playing along so you can be entered into the drawing for a prize!!!! In fact.........there are 2 prizes!!!!! A beautiful bracelet from the Etsy Shop owner and a wonderful stamp set, Folk Inspired, by the Unity Stamp Company!!! I hope you play along!!!!!
~ Have A Creative Day! ~

Snow? Wow! We never get snow. Bet you don't get DUST STORMS though!!!! (I'd rather have the snow!!) The skies look clearer today and we are hoping it will be easier to breath without a dust mask...

Those sure are cute snowmen. Thank you for showing us such lovely Etsy shops and setting such great challenges!!
