Christmas Card Club Challenge #22 Winter Wonderland

Hi Crafters,

I'm a day or two late posting my card for the Christmas Card Club, so I'm sending my apologies to the group but better late than never as the saying goes :o)
Here's my contribution...


The image is printed from a CD Rom I believe but for the life of me I can't locate which one and it was in a folder of things that I'd printed last year and never used - note to self...write on the back of printed items where they came from!
I then used an MFT scalloped, wavy border die to create the snowy foreground and some Lea'bilities Fir Tree Dies to match in with the trees in the picture and bring it all together. The sentiment die is made by Apple Blossom.

Please take a peek at the other ladies creations in the group their links are below:

Thanks for popping in today and hope to see you again soon.

Passion For Promarkers Challenge #467 - Halloween Colours

Hi Crafters,

Today marks the start of new challenge at Passion For Promarkers and this week we'd like to see your projects using...

HALLOWEEN COLOURS

Any project, a card, scrapbook page, 3D piece, tag etc but you must use your Windor Newton markers (Pro, flex, brush, aqua, tria or metallic markers) and tell us in your post where on your project you have used them.



I have coloured this fabulous Bugaboo Stamps image called 'Halloween Poem' with my Promarkers and used a Sizzix Mini Cabinet die for the tomb stone label. I inked the edges with Hickory Smoke Distress Ink but with the glare of the lights it's not showing up very well here. The cobweb is a Cottage Cutz die which I attached with a green eyelet and tied the top of the treat bag with Halloween coloured twine through the eyelet.

Challenges I'd like to enter:
Unicorn Challenge - #37 Autumn / Halloween
Brown Sugar - #283 Halloween / Autumn
Sweet Stampers - #25 Autumn / Halloween
