Cheers



   Friday here again and so there is a new challenge at QKR Stampede, the theme being as usual anything goes.
   I matted paper printed using a House Mouse CD ROM onto red card and attached a ribbon to the lower right hand corner. I then matted this onto green card to create two vertical borders and finally onto white card.
   The digi called Christmas cheer was coloured using Promarkers with the addition of a little loose glitter to the snowman. I cut him out using a circular die and then cut a segment away before matting it onto a green circle. Finally I added some washi tape.

Snowman and birdy friends



   The challenge over at Send  A Smile 4 Kids has a nice easy theme this time of anything goes.
   I have used a digi from Conie Fong called snowman and birdy friends and coloured it using Promarkers apart from the bauble for which I used a gel pen. I then cut it out using a circular die and added loose glitter to the hats of the birds, the snowman and the snow.
    I used a die from Tattered Lace's krystal die set to cut the silver mirri and mounted it onto dark blue card. This I matted and layered onto light blue then white card. I then attached the coloured digi to the centre.
