Christmas Kickstart Chellenge #23 Snow!


I knew just the set I NEEDED to get inky for Snow which is the Christmas Kickstart Challenge #23 this fortnight … tell me if you agree these guys aren't the coolest...


Those snow-guys are from an MFT* set called 'sELFies' - I just couldn't resist heat embossing these three onto TH water color paper, and doing some really simple water coloring with my Altenew 36 pan set. 

The 'polaroid' frame was also cut from water color paper [3 3/8 x 4 5/8"] and the square was cut out using a basic square from my Hemstitch square set.  The word SNOW was cut using Waffle Flower Crafts' Cutaway  Alphas - I love that the gingham* shows through - and the O was the perfect little hangout for my snowballs! [really they are pom poms from Queen & Co.]

Hope you like it, Jo!  I sure did love making it for you!

You should have gotten, by now, the snow I sent across the Lake. And the cold. At least I've sent you sunshine today, lol!! That image is adorable and you've watercolored it wonderfully! Love the gingham, and those letter dies. But those snowballs....I'm going to just have to use this idea, too!! Stay warm my friend. xoxo Bev
