Pinkfresh December 2020 Challenge

 

Pinkfresh is looking for all things holiday for their December 2020 challenge ... how about a holiday on the slopes??

I'm thrilled to receive this darling Skiing By set - it was a Christmas present, and the giver was not one bit mad at me for opening it early - thanks, Danni! xo

I try to do a little search from my snippets bin before I craft - lo and behold, I found the perfect rectangles, and an instant design idea!  
Tell me if you agree... I thought the Challenge colors were perfect for ski-wear!


A few supporting characters were used in the making: PF Holiday Vibes for the red paper; 
EH Winterscapes for the slopes. SSS stitched dies for movement.

Since none of us is planning any holidays any time soon, this little scene did
the trick for me ... and no broken hips!!  BONUS!

LOOK how brilliantly you've created that whoosh of exhilerating speed...I can almost hear the sound of the skis on the snow. This is genius.

Those colors are perfect for the ski-wear. Love that you used rectangle panels for each skier, and added movement using the stitched dies. What impressed me most is that you used one of the Winterscapes stamps for slopes! Great job, my friend!

Steller design here... love those little rounded rectangles and the shooshing mice and the way you connected the slopes and the stitching - just genius! And the placement of that red patterned paper... I can hardly stand it!
