Winter friends

A quick posting today of a card made for the new Joanna Sheen blog challenge which is called Christmas Wishes :) The verse is a custom made stamp, the snowman is by Inkadinkado coloured with dry pencils and cut with Classic Oval Nestabilities. The background paper is from a large batch of handmade Indian paper I bought several years ago - this particular design has made wonderful snowflakes!

I'm also entering this card in the final Bah! Humbug! challenge for Cute Christmas Critters because it gives me a way of saying thanks to Max and Ann for all their hard work and apologies for having disappeared off their radar for most of the year. Ladies, you won't have seen my previous post explaining that I've been ill for the past 6 months (or at least not well) but I am now recovered and rarin' to go with next year's Bah! Humbug! challenges :)

  1. This is adorable, love snowmen and this one is sweet, with that smile and holding that little bird. The paper is so pretty and oh so prefect for this little snowman.
