Let It Snow

Hi there,

Here is a card suitable for the weather we had this weekend:

The rabbits loved it - they refused to come back in until I persuaded them with some veggies!! Unfortunately it did not last long enough for me to build an animal. I made an ant last year lol:

Anyway - here is my card for this fortnights challenge over at Creative Moments (always anything goes - optional theme of let it snow), using an image from Rick St Dennis:
I thought this image made a perfect snow queen. I coloured the image using promarkers and made an easel card for the base. Pearlescent card gives the sheen associated with snow, and so I used it for the top of the card, and the main snowflake. The centre of the felt snowflakes, used as the prop for the easel, were coloured with Papermania glitter markers in the same colour as the sentiment.

I would also like to enter this card into the following challenges:
Quirky Crafts #1 Let's Celebrate
Card Mania #76 Winter Fun
scrapbook stamp society #83 Add three of something (Snowflakes)
Digi Chooseday #2 Cool Blues
Fussy and Fancy #155 Fashion -
Winner with sponsor 
polkadoodle Winter Birthday
stamping boutique Winter theme
ilovepromarkers #300 use something new (image)
artimpressions 175 Winter Wonderland

This is also inspiration for my facebook monthly theme group, which this month is Use three materials - This card uses paper/card, ribbon and felt.

I also have a fish tank update for you all:
Approximately 117 hours in!

Thank you for taking the time to look and I hope to see you over at the Creative Moments blog.
