MFP Blog Hop Day 4 - Snowman Country

Welcome to the MFP October Blog Hop! This month, we’ve added TWO MORE STAMP SETS!!!
We have 6 New Stamp Sets this month: Seasonal Poinsettias, Time to Chill, A Walk in the Woods, Greetings of the Season, Thankful for You, Snowman Country. For your convenience, all 6 stamp sets are available for purchase now.
Here is my sample of Snowman Country:
I found this "photo card" technique online.  Ideally you are suppose to put a photo in the background, but I so loved the trees from A Walk in the Woods that I used those instead.  Cool huh?  I love the way this turned out.  I am also entering this into JUGS challenge - use acetate.
That's it for me for this month's blog hop.  It was fun for me and I hope you had a great time this month too!  



For your chance to win BLOG CANDY, (a set that will be released NEXT month), visit and comment on each of the following design team members' blogs TODAY. On Saturday, (October 16, 2010), a winner will be chosen from those participants who visited all the blogs listed for today. (There will be four different winners, one winner for each day of the blog hop. You DO NOT have to comment every day. However, the more days you comment, the more chances you have to win!) If you miss a day, you can go back and comment on each day's blogs, as the winners will be chosen Saturday morning!
