Let it Snow!



As I sit here keying this in the temperature is about 26 degree's, the sun is beaming down in a blue, blue sky and the weather gods say it is getting warmer.  BUT, I am thinking of SNOWMEN! This is because over at Chocolate, Coffee and Cards, their latest challenge #29 is for Snowmen, and I had to have a go!

This is my snowman:

The image is a Lily of the Valley image and vintage sentiments, and it is coloured with Copics.  The rest is from SU card, and die cut snowflakes in glitter card.  I have used a background paper that is from a freebie and the ribbons and bling were just on the desk!
I have been quite busy as I said before and here are some of the results.  

Annabelle Stamps has a challenge



This little one suits the colours and she is so cute! Again the image is LOTV; embossing folders, and die cuts and such used to create it.


I am entering this challenge but if I do happen to win, I cannot collect the prize, but  just though I would through my hat in the ring!  It is with Copic Marker Europe and they want a Christmas card.


Another favourite place of mine is Scrapbook Boutique and they have a challenge that relates to a photo inspirations


This is my card for that:


It has all the colours and the sentiments.  Again, the images and sentiment is LOTV. 

And finally, another great store I love to shop in is Bizzy Becs; she is running a Christmas theme challenge (fancy that!) and has a graphic to inspire!


My take of this is this!


And just to look at:
