Festive Fridays 8-11 and part of Day 4 pictures

Good morning and welcome to another edition of Festive Fridays. If you are new to us, sit back, grab a cup of coffee, relax and enjoy some wonderful Christmas Cards. Yes, I did say Christmas...Festive Fridays will be every other Friday with samples of Christmas cards. This way, you can be making your cards all year long and you will avoid the mad rush when you could be enjoying the Christmas Season. You should have just come from Amanda. If you stumbled upon this post you can go back to Terri and start at the beginning. There is also a complete list of the Festive Friday hop on the left sidebar under the Festive Fridays blinkie in case you get lost along the way.


Today I am showing a non-traditional color card.  I love experimenting with different mediums and ideas and this one just kinda fell together.  This wasn't how it was supposed to be, but I think it turned out pretty good.

This was super simple.  I used my E-Craft to cut the snowflakes with SCAL3.  Then I laid them onto white cardstock and used my ink to paper direct on top of them.  Some areas got darker than others, but I like how the white peaks through.  Then I took one of the snowflakes and popdotted it in the corner.  I also used a small snowflake stamp and stamped my background paper.  SUPER easy and kinda fun.

Now I know some of the girls are giving away blog candy, so please make sure you stop over and visit each one of them.

I hope you like my Festive Friday card and hope to see you back in two weeks for another Christmas card.  Now head on over to Angela and check out what she has for you.

Just a few vacation pictures and a video:

The morning tree...it's a bit breezy, but the wind is going

to be at our backs throughout the entire paddle back

to civilization.  It will be a beautiful trip home. 

Just a few sprinkles and it created this beautiful rainbow.

We watched a craw fish eat our last sunny.  Can you

see him munching on the tail?  I bet I sat and watched 

for at least a half an hour.  Unfortunately we didn't catch

anymore fish before heading out at 1 pm, so Mr. Crawfish

had lunch instead.

Here is a video of the entire camp.  I hope you enjoyed

Boundary Waters with me.  I know I had a great time.

Be sure to come back tomorrow to see our paddle out.  It was a beautiful trip.
