March is going to be a FANTASTIC month, coming in like a LION here and I hope going out like a LAMB!! We have 6-10" of snow forecast for Saturday and Sunday. I'm sure I'm not the only one sick of winter and snow, but it is what it is, and soon we can complain about the heat of summer...
Our challenge at Christmas Cards All Year Round this month is "Step Cards". I chose to make a side-step card and used my Silhouette Cameo (for the first time) to cut it out. OMG, it's so easy that I went crazy cutting out step-cards and now just need to embellish them. I think I'm going to like my Cameo a lot better than I did my Cricut. The image is a My Besties image colored with Copics. These cuties have captured my heart. The flowers are from Prima. The two trees, sleigh and reindeer are from Southern Ridge Trading Company and have been coated with Gesso, added some snow and Diamond Dust. Finally got to use a couple of the pine cones from Canada and my sweet friend Eulanda.. The DP is from SU.
I hope you will join us this month. Be sure to stop by the CCAYR Challenge Blog and see the amazing designs by my wonderful DT sisters who have put up with me being sick and MIA for a long while. They have stood by me and encouraged me while I've gotten better. They are a wonderful and caring group to be a part of and I want to thank them all so very much.

Hi Carol, Your card is gorgeous, love the design and the cute image and all your embellishments. Hope you are having a good weekend, whether you had the snow or not. We haven't had any snow at all this winter which is most unusual but the temperatures have not been too cold so it's been lots of rain!!
