Just how beautiful can one snowflake be - Truly Scrumptious challenge 47 +Papertake weekly challenge +The Ribbon Girl challenge-Pink & Lilac

Good morning everyone how are you all today?, well and happy I hope...no weather forecast today as I'm sure your fed up with the white frosty stuff and don't need to hear who else has it, instead a question on the strangeness of life...how come I cant write left handed but can text with it...I think I have had too much time to ponder over the last few days lol, anyway onto my card for today which is for our last challenge this year at Truly Scrumptious, a fabulous sketch with the added option of framing it...now just how beautiful do you think this little snowflake angel is...isn't she just stunning shes from CC Designs and is a digi from the new Sweet November range and is called Neva, amazing to colour too, I used distress inks and a bit of sparkle, well you have to have sparkle on a snowflake don't you...the papers are from Craft Creations and the stunning ribbon is my bargain of the week from TKMaxx and was £1.99 for 6 reels of a yard each from Making Memories I think and I finished with some glitterboard punched snowflakes, I used the fantastic colour combo over at the Ribbon Girl Pink, white and Lilac challenge and am also entering it for the Papertake weekly red and green must not be seen challenge too...I'm off to see if I can fish out my husbands wellies as if I don't leave the house soon there may be newspaper reports of a madwoman wandering round, scissors in one hand, paintbrush in the other and texting left handed lol...have a brilliant day everyone

  3. Maybe the left handed text this is because you are amphibious hun (or is that ambidexterous LOL?). Loving your snowflake angel, so very pretty, and gorgeously warm in pink. Beautiful. Hugs, Sxx

  5. Oh, Mina you always make me smile! Today is a holiday in Italy but I'm superbusy with housework and schoolwork - students' tests to be checked! I'd also like to prepare a typical recipe for lunch, it's called "stoccafisso in umido" - a kind of fish stew - and last but not least I have a new project to post!
    Time to talk about your card! It's a real cutie, I love the sweet image and the sketch! What a long comment, sorry! Hugs. Miria
