Hiya blogging friends! I've been MIA on the blogging front for a week or so, so apologies for not having had time to visit you all lately. Consequently I have a little surprise to offer you at the end of this post as a way of an apology for my absence. First things first though, we have a new challenge over at The Creative Cottage Challenge blog, the theme this fortnight has been chosen by our lovely DT member Carol, who would like to see your 'Untraditional Christmas' colours on your projects... that means NO reds, greens & golds!
For my card I've used the gorgeous Lavendar Sky Paper Pack from The Creative Cottage, I think this works so well for wintery scenes! The little snowman image is my own drawing which I made into a digi, I've coloured him with my lovely Promarkers and added glitter for a bit of snowy bling. The little stars were cut (with scissors cos no start punch... will have to ask santa for that) from some of the papers, and I added the raffia and the pearls to finish off. I'm entering my card into the Passion For Promarkers Challenge 'Old & New'... my digi is new and my raffia has been in my stash for ages, A Spoon Full Of Sugar 'Anything Goes', Simon Says Stamp Challenge 'Let it Snow', Stampin For The Weekend 'Winter' and finally ABC Challenge I is for Ice & Snow. Here's a closer look at the image on the card...
Don't forget that there's a £10 Gift Voucher up for grabs from The Creative Cottage for one lucky winner, and I can assure you that you won't have trouble spending it in the shop!
Ok, the surprise is this little snowman digi, I've called it 'Snow Hello'... so if you'd like him just click on the image to make it larger then right-click and save to your computer. All I ask is that you give me credit if you use the image. This freebie is for private use only and still has my copyright, it may not be used commercially and turned into a rubber stamp or sold in any other way. Please let me know if you use him, I'd love to see any projects you make!
It's snowing outside so I'm off to make a nice hot cuppa before I get started on cooking the tea! Thanks so much for visiting!
