Here is my card...



This lovely image is Snowman Valentine, one of Faith's Project 100 Snowmen.
The sentiment is one of 3 that you get for free with this image.
I coloured my image with promarkers.
I layered the image with foam pads, then added this to a spotty piece of paper by Stampin Up (bashful blue DSP), which was in turn, added on top of a distressed piece of paper that I found in my stash, I think this piece is a magazine freebie, possibly by NitWit, though i'm not sure.

Thank you for stopping by today.

Midweek Inspiration at FTHS

Happy New Year everyone! :)
I hope that you all had a wonderful Christmas, here's wishing that 2016 will be a kind year to you all too.

Let's kick of my 2016 posts with a midweek inspirational one for From The Heart Stamps.
But i'm actually going to share the christmas card that I gave to my parents, because I haven't blogged it before.


This image is Mistletoe Birdbrains, don't they look smart in their finery?
I teamed up this fab image with a sentiment from DigiStamp Boutique, and paper from Lawn Fawn (Peace, Joy, Love).
Dies used here are Marianne Creatables 'Mistletoe', and a Tattered Lace scalloped border die.

Thank you for stopping by today, have a great day! xx
