Well when I posted on Monday I said I needed to take down the decorations and I did. I was a machine. I got everything done and then cleaned the first floor, and I continued to clean the basement. I have a huge trash collection coming! I am pitching tons. I hate all the clutter! I now just have to scrub and clean the upstairs and vacuum like crazy to get all the needles up from the decorations. I can't wait till it is all done!
Yesterday was a me day! I went to the spa and I got my nails done and an eyebrow wax and a facial. I feel fantastic! I love me days. I love my nails. I had acrylic for a little bit but I just didn't like them for me, but I love the look of polished nails, but regular polish chips so fast on my thin nails. Well I tried something new--gel polish. I love it. It lasts 2 weeks or more and it is my nail. It only took her 20 minutes from start to finish and I love them! What a fun day!
On to my Card:
Well a couple of weeks ago Simply Scrapbooks had an offer where if you bought so much you got a free card kit and this is what I picked. It is from Memory Box. I thought it was so cute. We got all the pieces and then we could assemble and decorate it however we wanted. So this is my take.
For the snowman I used my copics to color his hat, scarf, eyes, nose etc. I then filled in his body with some Ranger Stickles to give him that snowy feel.
I then inked the edges of the cardstock with Black Soot just to tone down the brightness of the edges. I think it is really cute. I am glad I picked this. I am sending it to my Mom. She LOVES to get cards in the mail, and I always like to surprise her.
Nothing exciting on my agenda today--laundry!! I would like to scrap a bit today--hopefully I will be able to. Well I will be back tomorrow with a new layout. Thanks for stopping by!

Sounds like a fun "me" day! Gel nail polish sounds interesting...do they sell it in stores or is it salon only? You are way ahead of me - I just got home from visiting my parents and am just too tired to get all the decorations down. But once I start, I'm a machine too. It all comes down in one day and I clean like a maniac! :)

Your me day sounds fab! I've heard about the gel polish, might have to check in to it! Glad you're getting everything cleaned up too. I love your snowman, the stickles just make him too perfect, your mom will love him!

super cute card!!
I am jealous-would love to have a spa day like you (maybe this weekend). Love, love the card-so cute.
Your card is adorable!
Love the card! I heard about the gel polish manicures awhile back but cant seem to find a location that does them around here. It sounds fantastic!
Love your card, who doesn't love to get happy mail :)
Spa day?! Sounds nice. I have never had one. Mine would be a nice hot tub and paint my own nails. Never had them done professionally done.
Very cute card, good job.
