My goodness but the weekend flew by!
Now it's Merry Monday time again.
Karen chose this challenge for us.
I had to think long and hard to decide what to do
and I still wasn't sure what I was going to do when I started.
I'm really pleased with the results though.
And it was fun to be challenged.
I used some white craft ink refill and an old toothbrush for the snow in the sky.
I die cut the village and sponged the tree trunks and houses with an eye shadow applicator then covered the roofs and trees with
Martha Steward Sparkle Texture Effects.
The bottom snowbank was cut freehand and the square frame cut on my paper cutter.
I outlined the frame and snowbanks with Dazzling Details.
Now it's your turn.
You'll find wonderful inspiration, at Merry Monday.
Do go to see the fantastic cards that the Design Team have come up with.
I'm so glad you stopped by.
Enjoy!

I often wondered how I could make snow falling and now I know. I am not much of a snow fan after this past winter but this card I like anyway. Thanks for a new tool next time I make an image like this.
ReplyDeleteLove it, Bonnie. It's a wonderful sky and snow bank. Love the village. Makes me cold looking at it. It is so icy and snowy.
ReplyDeletelove your card ...the little village is so tiny but you made it look awesome on this card ...wow. Thank you so much for sharing and sharing on how you made the card.
ReplyDeleteLove your little scene - very pretty! Had a little chuckle as well about your "non crafty" tools. Very innovative!
