JOY!!

Hello friends, hope this post finds you well.

I have a card to share for Christmas with The Cutie Pie Challenge today. It is our first challenge of 2020 and we are kicking off with Anything Goes with an option of CAS.

Here is mine...


I have tried a bit of ombre with my Promarkers on this sweet image, Penguin Joy The snowy background is a snippet of navy card and some platinum Liquid Pearls. Once again I kicked myself for not making multiples of these while I had the supplies out...doh!!

I hope this week is a good one for you. I am back to work following annual leave last week so a bit sad about that but never mind, onwards and upwards!!

See you later in the week and thank you, as always, for your visits and words of encouragement.

See you soon xx

Some challenges

Crafty Calendar - Use Die cuts/punches (my snowflake border is a CC die)

The word say's it all Sarah and great ombre effect with your colouring, lovely to see but won't be something I try to replicate (the weekend's post was a defo one off). Hope the winds aren't battering you too much and your paddocks are not as saturated as ours.
