No, I'm past the age to do wheelies I'm afraid. I'll leave that to the younger generation! But, I did use a "wheelie" on this card.......actually a SU wheel that has all the cute little snow people on it. Since I never could get the hang of those wheel things, I un-mounted them all from their wheels and just use them as regular stamps now.
I would say that this was a quick and easy card to do - however, it really tried my patience! I had in mind what it was going to look like and started with centering the sentiment in the middle and down a little more than half way from the top of the card. The problem came when I started lining up all the snow people........I used four of them from one side of the wheel and four from the other. FINALLY got it where they're all in a row and now life is good once again! LOL! I used some blue Stickles for the snowflakes above the little guys but they keep appearing black in the photo.
There's a new challenge on the block called Addicted to CAS and I'll enter this in their challenge that's themed "snow" this week.
Thanks for stopping by...............

Very clever design Lynn! Love the snowmen with the sentiment in the middle plus all the white space... gotta love those CAS cards and I'm going to check out that new site.
I was never interested in those wheelie stamps. I didn't think I'd be able to use them successfully, but you had a great idea on using them on this card!
TOO cute! Off to follow the new challenge blog too!
Maria :)
Happy Thanksgiving!
Great card but you know I love CAS cards. Have a wonderful holiday, my son is here for the week :)
Absolutely fantastic! Love, love your card and great stamp you used. I have one wheel stamp that I cannot use, think I'll try your suggestion. Thanks for the tip!
I think this one has come together nicely...even if you did pull apart your wheelie hehehe ;) a great christmas card! :D
What a fabulous card,love the image.xxx
So cute. Great idea to take the stamps off the wheel (those never really appealed to me even if I liked the image they produced).
All the work was more than worth it, Lynn! Wonderful CAS card. I'm going to bet that you'll be doing this new challenge pretty regularly since you're so adept at CAS designs. Love all the white on this one.
LOL i do the same! i always tend to go north while rolling the wheel :p so i took them off and used it like regular stamps haha
your card is too cute and i love that you kept it very CAS.
Super cute Lynn. Looks like they are leading the Christmas parade and carrying the banner. love it!
Gorgeous clean and simple design Lynn, I like the snowmen

You're so creative Lynn!I never would have thought to do that with wheel stamps! I have 3 of them tucked away in a box collecting cooties! LOL I love the scene you created here with 2 groups of snowmen! Totally cute!
Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
Love this card! I think I might have this "wheel" (also removed). I might just CASE this beauty!
That wheel is an oldie, but a goodie. I love it. This card is so cute-I love how you put the sentiment in the middle. btw I unmount all of my wheels.
This is adorable Lynn. Very you and very cute. X
Super CAS card and the snowmen are so cute... glad that they lined up neatly.
Love,
Monica
PS: Off to check the site now.
Heck, I've barely mastered flat stamps - put one on a wheel & I'd probably quit! I love how your card turned out, even though it gave you fits :) Must go check out that new challenge....
May I say - WOW. I really love this, Lynn. You have created a brilliantly, perfect CAS card with awesome colours. Love it!! Thanks so much for playing along in our first challenge at ATCAS! xx
I un-wheeled my wheelies too! Much more apt to use them now. This is so cute! A one layer card - so hard for me to comprehend - but I love them! Did you know there are 'one layer card' boards on Pinterest?! This is so cute - I even have that same stamp! Don't think I'll have the patience for the centering thing...I'll let you know. Yours turned out perfectly!
I've taken my wheels off too! Never could get them to roll evenly! I can see where this would be a challenge to get them lined up, but you've done a wonderful job! They look like there's a party about to begin...
I have unmounted in alot of my wheels too- love this cute CAS card- I think it would be so hard to center a card like this!
Wow!I've never use a stamp wheelie, I can imagine this was not easy to accomplish, but you have and it is beautiful. A true CAS card with fabulous content and colour. Thanks for sharing with us on our first challenge at Addicted to CAS, we do hope we see you visiting us again. Caz
Super cute and who wouldn't smile seeing all those snowmen! Hugs, Karen
I really love this Lynn. Fabulous stamping. Perfect CAS card. Thank you so much for joining in the Addicted to CAS this week.

Too Darned CUTE Lynn! 8-) Love your Fun little Snowman line up! I have wondered about the SU wheelies too, and have not even ventured to try them, lol cause I doubt I could roll them in a straight line, lol..8-) But your idea to remove them from the wheel and use like a regular stamp is brilliant! 8-) Love it! 8-)
Hugs

This is so CASlicious, Lynn! I love it! Good job on getting it to line up! (I can't believe I stamped for ten years without a stamp-a-ma-jig!) I'm pinning it!!
This card may have tried your patience buts its a great card - but I just love snow men ones - I quite like the wheels but they do get quite a bit of getting used to. But what a good idea to remove it from the wheel to use - best wishes Lesley x
This is wonderful! I haven't gotten around to unmounting mine yet, but plan to do so. You did a marvelous job lining these up and your snow definitely has a glimmer of blue to it! Fabulous CAS card!
