Merry Monday #138 {Gold, Silver, White and ??}


Happy Monday!

This past weekend was filled with a 2-day swim meet for our daughter and the Ponoka Pool Sharks! She did amazing along with all her team mates and I ended up with a few scrapes and bruises due to a fall on the deck, but I am babying my wounds and hopefully they will heal fast!

This week over at Merry Monday, Debbie is our challenge hostess and she's looking for the following:


For my 4th color, I added red (I don't consider black a color lol). I only had silver snowflake brads so my good friend, Leanne, gave me a tip! Dip the silver brads in Versamark ink and sprinkle gold embossing powder on them and heat! WOWZAS! Worked like a charm - then I had GOLD snowflake brads! Thanks for the tip, girl....


My cute snowman is from Bugaboo, called Old Snow Patches, and my sentiment is from Paper Smooches - Christmas Sampler set....

Come on over to the Merry Monday Christmas challenge BLOG and see what all the other Merry Makers have created using Debbie's inspiration! You will not be disappointed! Link up your card for us too - we'd love it if you could play along! CHEERS!

  3. Very cute snowman and great tip on the brads. I have done this trick with smaller brads but didn't think about it for the snowflake ones. I have some of those too. :) Have a great week and hope you heal quickly from your fall. OUCH!!!
