Thursday 3 February 2011

It's a sunshiney day today. Still chilly and cold, cold enough to show the next image from Faith for their own challenge, it's called 'for the birds snowman', lovely wintry image which easily could do for valentine's day as the weather is still that way and i love the hearts on him. Made my own backing paper with clear inkpad and grey chalks, used Sweet n Sassy snowflake clear stampset, sentiment is from there too! Promarkers used in particular to give the illusion of grey layer of paper i used the grey in my pack.

Other challenges entered are Digital Tuesday 'shades of grey and 1 other colour', Simon Says 'love is in the air', Kaboodles Doodles 'monochromatic', Pollycraft 'baby it's cold outside', I love Promarkers 'anything goes', For Fun 'winter or spring', I think you can guess which one is mine, followed the fab sketch from Truly Scrumptious (bottom corner looked too spacey so i added a diecut there too, hope it's ok) ,Cards for Men 'valentine/love', and a new challenge new to me is Craft Us Crazy 'anything goes'. Hope all is good in blogland, it's the Chinese New Year today, sooo Happy New Year if you're celebrating...it's the year of the rabbit!
