Hi Stampers!

It's snowing!  I guess winter is really here and I have to finally face the fact that I don't live in the desert.  Boo!  The only good thing about snow is that it is an excellent excuse to stay in and stamp!

Today I have a card that made using some of the new goodies I was able to pre-order from the Stampin' Up! Occasions 2014 catalog.  You will be able to order from this catalog beginning on January 3rd, 2014.  If you are in need of a catalog, send me an email and I can get one sent out to you!

My card was inspired by this week's challenge on the Freshly Made Sketches blog.

This was the sketch for the challenge this week.

And here's my card!  I love the clean and simple design!  And hello...don't you love that NEW Designer Series Paper???? It's fabulous and I love the color combo!  Also check out the cute new stamp  and I'll let you in on a secret....I did not cut that banner by hand....
