I first want to give a big THANK YOU to Judi Rose (jovialjudi) for giving me my beautiful blogger award! This means a lot coming from a dirty girl - lol! I was excited to see the CTD Challenge colors (Perfect Plum, Early Espresso, Vanilla) because I could go to a fave DP pad by Cosmo Cricket! I use these whimsical Verve trees a lot & love to paper piece them. The card is lacking something, so think I'll go back and add some Dazzling Diamonds glitter to the snowflakes. :-) The layout is another of Roxie's great Sketch Challenges on SCS. Still no heat in the house and it was in the 40's when I got up. I'll be glad when I don't have to sleep in my winter robe and socks anymore! Happy Wednesday to all...only 2 more days till my girlfriend trip to York, PA!

ReplyDeleteBeautiful card and I can see why you love that DP - it's gorgeous. Great use of the sketch and the colour combo.
Run some stairs???? I think Marissa is still on the "grunge"-wasn't that the name of the hill?
