I loved this challenge because green is one of my favourite colours and because this stamp is soooo adorable.

The wooden snowflakes were a pressie from my bezie mate and were coloured with Pine disress ink.
The ribbon is from fantastic ribbons.
The doly was cut uing a cheery lynn die

Good morning all,
 It hardly seems like a week since our last challenge over at CRAFT, but here we are with a new challenge  and today we have a ..........
Photo inspiration challenge for you.


We have several amazing sponsors for you.



For my card I used an image by Sassy Studios who sponsored our Star of the Month.
The image was chosen by a friend at work who commissioned a 50th birthday card for her husband who's birthday is on Halloween.


The image is coloured with Promarkers
The papers are from card making downloads
The charms were from ebay
metal corners from Wild orchids ( I sanded them to take the shine off them so they looked older.
The sentiment was made on my computer using chiller font.

I am entering this into the following challenges

Hope he likes it when the time comes his wife loved the design when I showed it to her.
Enjoy the challenge
