Just walking in the snow......

I seem to have been easily distracted lately by Halloween and family bonfire gatherings.  BUT - even so I've still managed to makes some cards :)

For my first round of Christmas card making I used traditional colours.  I'm trying to make a batch of cards in non-traditional colours at the moment for a change.

The image I've used for this one is Winter Walk.  I've used ProMarkers to colour the image, keeping the colours subtle and light and I've added some glitter to highlight the snow.

Papers are all from Lili of the Valley

The sentiment also belongs to Lili of the Valley - Happy Circular Sentiments.

As well as being non-traditional I've picked three lots of embellishments
Pearls (in a string), lace and flowers.  All of these were from Wild Orchid Crafts.

I'm going to enter to card junto the following challenges
Winter Wonderland - Pick n Mix
Crafty Cats - Anything Goes
Stamping Sensations - Simply Christmas
Lili of the Valley - Merry Christmas
Creative Card Crew - Christmas Joy
Papertake Weekly - Anything Goes

Happy Crafting
