Winter Wonderland

It's time for a new challenge at Winter Wonderland and our theme for you this week is Dashing through the Snow - we would like to see some movement like sledging or ski-ing on your projects.  I've made a card using a fabulous LOTV die cut topper - it looks like these have been discontinued and replaced with the new Art Pads.


I have created a cloudy background with distress inks and mounted the image onto Kraft card stock cut with my Spellbinders Labels Fifteen die, the sentiment is also from LOTV stamped onto a Spellbinders ribbon banner die cut that I inked whilst still in the die.

I used a Cuttlebug embossing folder to emboss the white panel and cut a border with a Fiskars border punch.  The papers are Dovecraft Back to Basics Vintage Christmas and the ribbon is from my stash.

I have decorated the inside of my card to complement the front:


This week we have two fabulous sponsors again

J&C Creations
who are offering a prize of a £10 voucher

and also

Crafty Ribbons


who have also offered a £10 voucher

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:

Paper Playtime Challenge 9 - Emboss (dry or wet)
Take Time For You Challenge 91 - Dots and Stripes
A Little Bit Crafty - KRAFT it!
Nutcrafters Challenge 41 - Bingo (embossing, free, die cuts)

Make sure you pop over to the Winter Wonderland Challenge blog and take a look at the DT inspiration, we would love for you to join us this week for our Dashing through the Snow challenge.

Thank you for visiting me today, I really appreciate your company.

    I like sweet boy images - I wish there were more of them around! Beautiful coloring and such a great design too. I love the combination of red, white and kraft - it gives your card such a nice traditional Christmas feel!
