Snow Angel

Evening friends! Is it chilly where you are? Tis here, and we've been having snow on and off all week, oooo I'll be glad when spring is here!

I'm still using the fabby new Mary Hall Winter stamps available from Funkykits here, and decided to make this one my first Christmas card of the year! I remember the big rush I had on in December and if I can do a couple a month then maybe it won't be so manic;) That's the plan anyway!

I've used 'Snow Angel' for the main image-love this one! I used some Cosmic Shimmer iced crystals for the snow and all the rest of the sparkle on the card is from Shimmerz blingz paint in pixie dust which is on offer right now at 15% off-perfect time to try it if you haven't yet or stock up! All the papers are Cosmo Cricket Jolly by Golly-just love this stack!

Here's an image close-up:~


The layout of the card is from the sketch over at Papertake Weekly by the fab Dawny P-I do love her sketches! I'm also entering this over at the Design Dollies, they've got a yummy colour combo of kraft, ivory and green.

Well that's it from me guys today. Friday tomorrow-wohooo! Got anything nice planned this weekend? Thanks for popping by and for any comments you might leave me-I really appreciate it!
