Hello everyone I found myself a bit of "me time" today and sat down and made this.
In my quest to use my stash I found this lovely Penny Black, T for transparent, stamp. It's Arctic Friends and available here. Although there is a lot of white, it was quite a tricky card to colour using my trusty Promarkers. If you would like to replicate the wintertime night sky, I blended Midnight Blue, Denim Blue and Powder Blue and added the falling snow with white pen. I also discovered yet another untouched paper pack, this time a fab Polkadoodles collection. I was inspired by several challenges so to comply with the brief made a round base using my Tonic layering scalloped circles die set and finished off with a Creative Expressions die cut sentiment. Ooh and Stardust Stickles provided the snow!!
I can't tell you what a treat it has been to make a card for fun and the rate at which the nights are drawing in I am hopeful to be able to do this more often. I hope you are managing to make time for yourselves.
That's all for now lovely people. I am off to join in with these challenges, mind you knowing Blogger it might take several hours!!
