ABC Christmas ,, ‘W’ for Winter Sports

Hi all :-) Time is flying by and Christmas will be here in only 6 weeks !! If you haven’t started your cards yet then you are LATE !! Better get inky and join us !! :-)

Our challenge for the next fortnight is ,,,

‘W’ for Winter Sports ,, ice skating, sledding, ski-ing, even ice fishing !!

We are sponsored by the lovely Heidi at Simon Says Stamp so a fab $15 voucher on offer for one lucky entrant

AND the Stamp Fairy are sponsoring too so you could win a choice of 3 digi images too :-)



For my card I used this very cute Penguin Sled stamp from Penny Black. I coloured with Copics and added Polar White flower soft to their hats and Glossy Accents on their beaks. I embossed a the background white card with a Sizzix Dots folder, the snowflake paper is a digi download from Pink Petticoat and I layered everything onto silver stardream card. I used Martha Stewart Icicle and snowflake punches and pounced a Pearl Paint Dabber onto a trip of white card to place under the ribbon ( from the Ribbon Girl) I added a button, twine and a lovely hat charm that was a RAK from America xx I used loads od Star Dust Stickles and a Robins Nest Metallic Dew Drop to finish.




Thanks for looking :-) the DT and the Stamp Fairy DT have all made some gorgeous cards for you to see so hop on over to the ABC Christmas Challenge to see them.

I have a candy at the top of my blog if you would like to see it :-)

Love this one! I started on a W for Winter Sports card, but only managed to colour my image so far. I was already thinking of using a grey or black mat, but now I think I'll case your card for the current ABC challenge. ;-)
