snow much fun


I'm SO excited to have won the TAWS challenge! Thank you ladies!!!

 

A BIG thank you to The Girlfriends for this honor! 

I love playing along with challenges, but I don't have time to play with all of my faves. That's why I try to
combine a few of them at a time...with varying degrees of success. ;) This card is inspired by a few of them...


I adore TAWS stamps...just look at those adorable penguins! So squee! :)


What do you think of orange hills and wood snowflakes? Does it work? I think so :)




Here are the challenges I'm linking up to:
TAWS BE lnspired - inspiration photo #19 below
CAS(E) this Sketch - sketch #10 below
CASology - #26 winter
Little Red Wagon - lots of bling (ETA: I meant to link up to this challenge when my card was posted, but lost my challenge list...I knew I was missing one. I'll leave it up to The Girlfriends to decide if that's ok)
Moxie Fab World - use 10 embellishments




I'll be back on Sunday with more projects using washi tape!

I know what you mean about the challenges. I can't seem to multi-challenge much past two at a time. Maybe it's another one of those dagnabbit age things!

Your card is adorable, Barb!!
