Snowmen Thank You Cards

Last Wednesday, I started making the thank you cards I needed to send thank yous for our Christmas gifts. The All That Scraps Weekly Wednesday Challenge was to make a project with snowmen. I thought this was perfect for Christmas thank yous. Also, I thought it would give me a chance to use my new Martha Stewart snow flurry border punch that I got for Christmas. However, after picking the designer paper, the border punch didn’t quite work. Instead I used ribbon. I used last week’s Mojo Monday sketch to come up with the layout.

I think I prefer the white snowflake brad, but I only had 4 of them and I made a dozen cards. Which do you prefer? You can also tell I used two different cameras for the pictures (my main camera’s batteries died). The second picture taken with my main camera really makes the ribbon look satiny.
