Dream Big


Do you ever purchase a "special" purchase and never use it??  Well, this paper is some of it.  Part of my New Years resolution is to use up some of my "special" papers and embellishments I have been saving for that "special" project.  This fun snow man is new from 2 Cute Ink.  He is called "SnowBot".  He was perfect for me to use up some of those "special" clock parts I have been saving along with this fun paper. I just shake my head at myself.
