Spots and Stripes at Winter Wonderland

Good Morning Everyone, 
We have a new challenge starting at Winter Wonderland today and this week the theme is...
                                   SPOTS AND STRIPES
I've used a Penny Black stamp called 'Snowy and Hedgy'. It does feel funny taking photo's of Christmas cards in the gorgeous sunshine!
I've coloured them with promarkers and added lots of glitter. The background papers are from Craft Creations.
I've used a Marianne Creatables snowflake die, a MB star die and a Dees Distinctively snow covered tree die.

This week we are sponsored by Oyster Stamps who are offering a £10 voucher for the winner.


I'd like to enter the following challenges:-
Papertake Weekly - Anything Goes ( Christmas Optional)
Crafty Hazelnuts Extra - Anything Christmas
Fab n Funky  - Christmas
The Squirrel and The Fox - Christmas in July
Crafty Catz - Star and/or stripes.

Thanks for taking the time to visit my little blog today and for all your lovely comments. I'm a bit behind with my commenting but I promise to catch up with you all soon.

You cost me a fortune! Honestly, you are such a bad influence! This is stunning, I love the papers and my list of 'must have' dies has now grown. Beautiful image. I really must get on with my Christmas cards. Indigo was off school yesterday and made loads of Christmas cards :) Sending hugs, Jayne xx

Very cute Lorraine, I love the layout and papers. I don't think I could spend Christmas in Australia and have a BBQ on the beach. I suppose it is what you get use to. We were brought up for it to be cold and bad weather, lets face it here in England it is like that a lot of the year. Lol!!!
Have a great weekend.

I've just seen this over on the challenge blog and had to pop over to see it for real. It's just so pretty Lorraine. I really love the soft blues and the hedgey picture. I love PB stamps but don't seem to get chance to use them much. Most of mine are xmas themed, and they're so cute. I love your colouring too. White is so hard to 'colour' but your snowman is fabulous.
Hugs
