Our fabulous sponsor this week is the marvelous Nikki of Bunny Zoe's Crafts and 1 lucky player will win a £10 Gift Certificate to spend in her store. Hope you will be able to play along with us this week because we'd love to see your creations. So hop on over to checkout the DT's fabulous creations for inspiration.
I did something totally different for my creation this week. Can you guess? The Magnolia Snowman with Lantern is NOT coloured with Copics ~ shocker, no! I took a fabulous distress ink class with the talented Angie Hunt this past weekend. This is one of the images we coloured in class and as you can very well tell, I need LOTS OF PRACTICE.
Papers are Bo Bunny from their Midnight Frost Collection. Charm and brads are from my stash and the blingy snowflakes were made with Micro Fine Glitter Ritz and Sookwang Paper, all available at Skribbles and Scraps. Love this new glitter and it has so many possibilities with the Sookwang Paper.
I'm entering this card into the following challenges:
- Little Red Wagon ~ Use Some Red
- ABC Christmas Challenge ~ W for Winter Wonderland
- Magnolia Down Under ~ Make Your Own Embellishments (my snowflakes)
- Just Magnolia ~ Anything Goes & Beads (my pearls)
Hugs,
Maria
