White as Snow

Welcome to another Cut It Up Challenge!  This week we are playing with the theme White as Snow (with a touch of color).  I know some of you out there on East Coast and parts of Canada are BURRIED in snow. Hopefully you are enjoying it a little?  For those of us that aren't in the snowy parts of the world, this challenge gives us all a chance to play with the fluffy white stuff. :)

You know how the challenge works right?  Just follow the CIU blog, make a new creation and include a die cut and link it up.  As my kiddo says, "easy-peasy lemon-squeezy!"  Be sure head over to CIU to check out the full rules and the other ladies inspiration.  Oh and did I mention the prize?  Yep, there is a $20 gift certificate from Cute as a Button up for grabs!  Come on over and play!

Before you go I want to share my creation with you.  I made a white on white card using a SU! snowflake embossing folder and the "hello" die from Simon Says Stamp.  Now you may have noticed that I took the "touch of color" very literally.  There is a little bit of silver twine tied around my white ribbon on the edge, do you see it?  Originally I intended to add more color, but I liked the way this looked as is, so I decided to stop there.

Question of the Day time!  I gotta know, what is your favorite thing to do in the snow?  Me.... I've done some skiing (I like that but don't own the gear), I've snowboarded (OK, but I am kinda a wuss), I enjoyed making snow caves and tunnels as a kid and I got some new snowshoes for Christmas but haven't had the opportunity to use them yet (no snow here), so that leaves my favorite thing, which is sledding!  I know there are things I am missing like snowball fights and snow angles, etc., so please share your fave.

Thanks for stopping friends!
