Cards For Little Hearts


I've put the blog hop banner at the top to attract you guys in - hopefully - LOL!!


In addition to the blog hop prize and the prizes that Christina will be picking from the card donations, some of the ladies taking part in this blog hop have some CANDY for you to win as well - INCLUDING ME!!

The full blog hop list is further down the post but the person you need next on the list is 

So onto my card.  A little while ago I created Snowmen Selfie some of you should have picked it up as a freebie.  It's on my challenge blog.

I've coloured the image with ProMarkers and polychromos pencils
I used black soot ink from Tim Holtz on the edges and then distressed it, it was then mounted onto some black card.

Papers are from Maja Design and JoyCrafts, a bit more black card and a couple of scraps of left over paper (I've LOTS of these to use up).  I've added some film strip from Tim Hotlz, a couple of tiny cameras and a couple of sentiments from Scrapienic.

I then decided to go mad with a while gel pen and add lots of dots for snow :D

Happy hopping lovelies!

Hi, Andrea! I love that snowman selfie image, ESPECIALLY in those fabulously bright colors. The little camera-film details on the right are darling! Will definitely delight a child's heart.

Coincidentally, I published a post this morning prior to our blog hop using one of your images as well! It was a pleasure using it, too. Thanks for contributing to the card drive!
