I hope you have all had a lovely weekend. Very tiring for me - as I mentioned earlier, I had a very long day at the NEC on Saturday and them a 12hr shift at work on Sunday. Never mind, two more days and I have 5 days off. I have had a play with the new Martha Stewart moulding clay which I bought from the NEC and I love it. Will show a card shortly with the results.
Today see the start of a new challenge at Diva's by Design. The theme for this challenge is Something Snowy and it is being sponsored by Bunny Zoes. The girls have come up with some gorgeous cards so it would be lovely if you could pay them a visit and even lovelier if we were to see you enter the challenge.
I have used the image Penguins by Di's Digi's rather cute I think.
I have coloured the image with Pro Markers and the papers are from LOTV.
The berries and cinnamon stick are from Anne Marie Designs. The Raffia is from Asda's Christmas collection.
The dangling snowflake is from Memory Box and the other is from a Martha Stewart punch.
I have added some Frantage to make the effect of snow.
I have had a lot of trouble linking some of the products used to Inlinkz so only a few on the list so far. I think it is because I am so tired that I am making stupid mistakes. I will get back to the list when I can keep my eyes open which may be this evening.
I would like to enter this card into the following challenges.
