headed for snow

Our trip to California last winter was awesome and of course every time we're there that time of the year we have to make a trip up to Big Bear & Green Valley Lake. It's about a 45min drive from Grandmas house in GT. Love it there...the snow is sooo nice and we just have a blast.

This first layout is a tribute to our drive up the mountains. You can see the snow covered tips from the the town and then where we ended up.

This was little Bobo's first trip to the snow and even though he was freezing his little buns he didn't want to go...he was having way to much fun. And of course a snowball fight is a must. This layout is of Ea & Bobo just having some good 'ol cold fun!!!

challenge # 50, make a card for Christmas, using the card feature from any cartridges you'd like, using any colors you'd like

I used a snowflake cut from "A child's year"

To make it hang I cut it out 2x & then another 2x on flip, matched all the sides and fold down the middle, glued half then added fishing string down the middle and glued the rest.
