Cardmadfairy November Challenge - Winter Wonderland

Hi everyone **waves**


I hope you are having a good day ;-)


I have had the most wonderful honour of being a Guest Designer for Cardmadfairy for the month of November and here is my second card.


We hope you will play along with us this week but please remember that you must use a digi stamp although it's not necessary to use a Cardmadfairy one but it would be fantastic to see how you would use our images. Please remember though to only enter the challenge once unless you are using Cardmadfairy images, we will have to delete any extra entries which don't comply with our rules


This fortnight, the theme is Winter Wonderland - as soon as I saw the theme, I knew exactly what DP/vellum I was going to use ;-)




I used the Buttons Snowman image and printed on white dimple textured cardstock and coloured with watercolour pencils, heat embossed the nose, and added kindy glitz to the hat.  Image was then matted onto purple cardstock. Side panel is pearl cardstock embossed using the Snowflakes folder in the Cuttlebug, then mounted onto 'Winter Wonderland' vellum, all layered onto soft purple square card.  Card highlighted with gems and snowflake cut using the CraftROBO.

Check out Cardmadfairy - they have some wonderfully cute digital images.


Cardstock and vellum from BlueEdge Crafts


I would like to submit this card for the following challenges:

Creatalicious Challenges - make it sparkle
ABC Challenge - D for Dazzle
Digital Tuesday - sparkle and shine

Inspire me fridays - anything goes




Thank you for visiting my blog today, and have a good day - remember, any day spent doing something you love makes it a good day ;-) 
Doing what you like is freedom. Liking what you do is happiness.
