Here is what I did for Day 1



Paper tearing is fun as there is no right or wrong way to do it! I did a tone-on-tone background with a snowflake stamp and versamark ink. The image was colored with Memento inks and prismacolor pencils and popped with dimensionals. Added some pearls and doodled and there it is!

Here is a close up!

Happy Snow day

This is my first post about Xmas cards. I have been very very busy with trying to create some cards and looking after my 2 sweet munchkins who are now sick! Hubby has been busy with work, last minute schedules!!!

I have created a simple Z-fold card where I have cut the middle to include my image. The wording is form my own handwriting. Enough about me and here's my "Snow" card:

This is the front


This is the back
