I trimmed the lilac paper, layered it onto red mirri card and attached it to the card front.  The digi was resized and printed onto white card before being die cut and coloured with Promarkers.  The coloured image was layered onto a red mirri Decorative Labels One and was then attached to the centre of the card.  To finish I highlighted the penguins with a Wink of Stella and added Fun Flock to the bobble on the penguin's hat.

Girl and Puppy in the Snow

There is a new challenge at Winter Wonderland and we want to see 'Hats and/or Scarves'.  We are sponsored by Sasayaki Glitter who are offering the winner a digi stamp of their choice.

I'm entering the Holly and Ivy Christmas Challenge 'Anything Christmas Goes', Sparkles Christmas Challenge 'Snowflakes' and Crafty Hazelnut's Christmas Challenge 'Anything Goes'.  The paper and card were from my snippets drawer so I'm also popping across to the playground at Pixie's Crafty Workshop.

Card blank: 6" x 6" white silk
Stamp: Sasayaki Glitter 'Girl and Puppy in the Snow' digi
Die: Spellbinders Nestabilities 'Wonky Rectangles'

Embossing: Kars tan embossing mat
Colouring: Promarkers
Card: White silk
Snippets: Marianne Design 'Snow Paper', Lili of the Valley 'Festive Trimmings'
Other: Diamond Stickles, Turquoise Candy BonBons, Wink of Stella.

I trimmed the red paper and attached it to the card front.  The digi stamp was resized and printed onto white card before being die-cut and embossed.  I coloured the image to match the colours of the paper and then attached it to the centre of the card.  I punched two large and two small snowflakes and attached them to the corners of the image before adding turquoise BonBons to the centres.  To finish I added Stickles to the snowflakes around the girl and a Wink of Stella on her dress frill and hat.
