The Paper Shelter Challenge #184 - Metal!

So today's card is an inspiration card
for The Paper Shelter's metal challenge.

I was a little miffed about what I was going
to do, I have these metal sheets and was
so excited about possibly using them, as I had
 the plan to cut snowflakes out of them but
they would NOT CUT!.... :(

SOOOO, I totally forgot I had
metal snowflake brads and they worked {PERFECT}


What do you think? I loved how it turned out. 
Now to figure out who gets it this Christmas ;)

Chi Chi Memories - Introducing Peek a Boo 1!

This week's inspiration card is introducing the new image 
from Chi Chi Memories called Peek a Boo 1.

I have a couple of coworkers who have been off sick,
so I thought making them each a card and having
everyone sign it would cheer them up and let them know
that we are thinking about them. Work has not been the same
without them..... and we hope they are able to come back soon.

Today's digital image is available here!
