It's Snowing...somewhere

No Crafty Ones - it isn't snowing real snow where I live

but it is on my card for the latest challenge over at

The Mod Squad and what a timely one for me.

 Check out the Details Here

I was working on another card (which you will see at a later date0

when I had a leftover piece of water colour card stock. I had some

Blue Brusho's and White Pearl Acrylic Paint on my craft mat

so not to waste it I just smooched it and thought 

it would come in handy especially as 

Christmas is just down the road.

Little did I know I would snap it up quickly to make my card above.

As it was only a small piece I cut out 

part of my birch tree die to adhere to the front. 

I recently purchased some Delta Fantasy Snow

from Happy Little Stampers. It takes ages to dry

but has little balls of snow with bits of shimmer

and looks so realistic. I added it to the bottom

on the trees and even my wee bird which is from

a very old Gina K stamp set called Snow One Like You.

I cut him out separately as he was attached to a bird cage.

He has a tiny bit of Nuvo shimmer.

My sentiment is from STAMPlorations Celebrate the Season

inked with Memento Summer Sky.

(wish I had inked it further up)

Finished with some glitter stars.

I found a few other Challenge Sites I though 

I would drop my card over to.

They are - The Merry Christmas Challenge

It's Anything Goes + Christmas

and The Water Cooler Challenges

for  Charlotte's All About Christmas

Thanks so much for dropping in today.

Love reading your comments.
