Time sure flies by these days and it's time for another Flourishes Timeless Tuesday ~ FTTC128.
Flourishes is having a *Christmas in July SALE* going on this week and our theme for this weeks FTTC is to create a *CHRISTMAS* card /project. Make sure to swing by the Flourishes store to see the sale!!!
I chose the super cute snowman from the Warm Winter Wishes Set for my card today. The sentiment is from the Holiday Greetings Set. The snowman was inked in Memento Tuxedo Black and colored with these Copic Markers ~ C1, C2, R14, E15, E17, YR07, B91, B93. The background was embossed with the Swiss Dots Folder and the snowman was layered onto the Dainty Doily Die-namic. Next I added some Glitter, Ribbon, Silver Cord, Silver Pearls and a matching Button. My layout for this card was inspired by this weeks Sketchbook Saturday Challenge #21.
Please take a minute and check out my team mates ideas on this weeks challenge ~ Cindy, Heather, Maki, Tammy and Betty. Don't forget our July Guest Designer Shannon White!!!
Thank you so much for stopping by today....have a wonderful day and I'll see you soon!
Hugs, ~Silke~

Great card...this snowman is one of my faves. Love the colors in your lovely card.
What a cute snowman! Love your card!
Beautiful holiday card, Silke! I love snowmen and this one is darling! Love it!
So pretty, so serene! Even though the snowman is whimsical, the pairing of white & navy blue, with a touch of silver, makes up for such an elegant card! Love it :)
Love all the plays on dots on this fabulous card: the embossed dots, the dots on the dp and the holes on the diecut. Beautiful work, as always.
The bow is wonderful on a lovely card. Thanks for sharing.
What a beauty Silke. I love the glitter accents on the snowman. Super cute! :)

Just perfect Silke! I think the swiss dots and the doily are perfect together for a Christmas / snowy card. Love it!
Absolutely beautiful! I love your layered bows and the perfect button to top it off! Sweet snowman!
Love the snowman and the die. What a gorgeous card thanks for sharing.
Darling card, Silke!
Adorable!!! Love that shade of blue against the white!!!
Silke, you couldn't have made a card that I liked any more than this. Birds and snowmen are some of my favorite things. What a great challenge as Christmas cards are my favorite kind to make. This is just awesome!
Thanks so much for the encouraging words you gave me last week on my card....I had really had a bad day in the craft room. LOL I guess those days happen and you put a smile on my face.
Super Sweeet! Love this little guy.
