Happy Christmas!

Hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas. I know we did. It was so nice to have a bit of joy for a change.  We had a wonderful day here although a bit of snow would have been the topping on the cake. 

Here is my project for the Stamp Mans Bleak Mid Winter challenge. It is an ATC.


I used the US Artquest Napkin collage kit for the bird. I just loved the images that came in the tin. 
The tree stamp is from Tim Holtz Winter Sketchbook set. It is colored using Distress inks and white paint.


Now off to catch up in blog land and around the house. 
Have a wonderful day.

New Challenge at TIOT

Time for another challenge over at Try it on Tuesday and our wonderful sponsor is  Delicious Doodles


Our sponsor for December is Delicious Doodles, who are  generously offering our monthly winner, their choice of 4 Digi stamps from the store.

This Fortnights Challenge is  a 'Lucky Dip'. where you have to pick 4 items from our ingredients list to use then let us know what which you chose to use.

Ingredients to choose from are:
Die cuts
Ribbon
Sentiment
Pearls
Distressing
Stamped Image

 Here is my project. It is a mini Acrylic album I made as a gift. Its a little Gingerbread house themed book.

The mouse is a stamped image cut out and colored with Promarker. the flowers are Maya Road with pearl trim. the little sparkle disks reminded me of gum drops so they fit the theme.
 The ribbon opens to reveal more hidden space for pictures and journaling.
 Love the little mouse image reading the book.
these are diecut flowers and stickers above on the roof trim.
If you look carefully you can see the little mouse wishing upon the Christmas star.


Now if you pop on over to the TIOT challenge blog you can see more projects from our wonderful design team and join in the fun with your project. We cannot wait to see you there.

Thanks for stopping in and have a wonderful day. Angela
