Thanks so much for sharing your adorable inspiration, Franci!

Mimi celebrates the Year of the Snake with charming and clever card!


Mimi layered a Quilted Backdrop over red cardstock as a pretty base for her clever celebration card. Next, she used Flickering Candle Distress Mica Spray on a Lacy Rectangle, giving it a brilliant gold sheen.


She created the red envelopes with Little Letter before embossing in gold the Happy New Year sentiment from Simply Celebrate Winter Critters. Then she added the snake from Critters in the Desert, flowers from More Magic Messages and gold coins from Ahoy Matey. And she filled the envelopes with cash from How You Bean? Money Add-On.

She combined words and phrases from Henry’s Build-A-Sentiment: Winter, Spring and Family to stamp the thoughtful greeting.

Thank you for sharing this wonderful inspiration with us, Mimi! Happy New Year!

The Let’s Celebrate challenge ends this Sunday and we will be back on Monday with another inspiring challenge!

Mimi used the Inspiration Colors to create a frosty arctic scene!


For the background, Mimi created a glacier by combining Desert Canyon Backdrop and Stitched Mountain Borders. She used the teal colors with Peacock Feathers Distress Oxide ink to create the icy environment. Mimi brought in the pink shades with Spun Sugar and Picked Raspberry Distress Oxide ink for the sky.


Beary Happy Holidays and Penguin Party provide the critters for this cute scene, including the pink salmon! Mimi used rocks from Wild Wolves and Critters in the Desert for more icy detail.

Thank you so much for sharing this clever inspiration, Mimi!
