Winter Sports

Hello there,

Happy Hump Day! I do love Wednesdays....half way through the week! This week Wednesday is even more welcome as its my last day of work this week....tomorrow I am off to Germany with my family to visit the Christmas markets near the Rhine. I love that part of Germany and cannot wait to get back out there!

But before I go...we have a new challenge for you over at Christmas at Sweet Stampin, and for the last challenge of 2014 we have a winter sports challenge.

I have picked ice skating as my winter sport....and have gone a little overboard with the Christmas jumper inspired backing paper! 

My image is coloured with my Promakers and I have made my ice shine and sparkle with my stickles. I have this Do Crafts backing paper for ages and thought it went well with my ice skating theme.

For more winter sports inspiration pop by the Christmas at Sweet Stampin challenge blog and take a peek at all the gorgeous DT cards that have been created this month!

While you're there you can also find out about our fab sponsor this month....

Thank you for popping by today,

Winter Sports!

Hello there!

Happy Wednesday...I hope you are having a good week....I do love bank holiday weekends, they make the working week so much shorter!

I spent my weekend in the garden, it was lovely to finally see some sunshine and get on top of all the weeds! Also got my veggies planted. I ache all over at the moment, but it was worth it! Now can you all keep your fingers crossed for everything to grow please!

Soooo.....another month has flown by and we have a new challenge for you over at Christmas at Sweet Stampin. And this month....just as the snow has finally melted we are asking to see your cards featuring a winter sport.

Now, I have to say I struggled a little here....I don't seem to have many images featuring any kind of sport....let alone a winter one!! Luckily I managed to unearth this image....

 

So, my winter sport is sledging, with a little walking thrown in!!

 

My cute image is coloured with my Promarkers and I have gone with a blue theme to match all the snow. I have added some sparkle to the snow with my Stickles. Finally I added my brilliant sentiment....I really should use this one more, it makes me smile!

 

Pop by the Christmas at Sweet Stampin challenge blog to find out which winter sports the DT chose to feature on their cards. While you're there you can find out about the fab prize we have on offer this month from our sponsor....

 

 

I'd also like to enter this card in the following challenges:

 

Make it Monday

Allsorts - add some sparkle (my snowflakes)

Di's Digi Design - anything but square

Papertake Weekly - anything goes with an optional extra of using two stamps

 

Pop by all these challenge blogs if you get the change to see the gorgeous DT cards that have been created this week!

 

We've got a cake sale at Brownies tonight....so of course I got baking!

 

 

I hope these are going to be popular!
