Sew Many Challenges #2



Where did the weekend go? Flew by way to fast for me! It'll be February before you know it and still no big snowstorm for us here in Connecticut. Just need one storm to keep the kids out of school and go sled riding... just one. Nothing but rain around here :0(...

Well, today I have a card to show you that I made using these super cute images from Sew Many Cards. You have to take a look at these critters and if you visit their Challenge blog every Friday, they have Freebie Friday where you get a free image to use. Can't beat that!



The challenge this week is a color combination challenge using purple, white, and a splash of black. The challenge is open to everyone, so go check out their blog if interested. I colored my image with copics and used one of those Flowersoft globes. Tried to make it look like a shaker card by putting in some polar white flowersoft inside the globe. What do you think? It's a little hard for me to get a good picture of this card because the camera reflects off the globe. Hopefully, you can see it ok?



I am also entering this card at the following challenge blogs:

Our Creative corner - sketch
Fussy and Fancy Friday Challenge - winter


Still can't believe I won that last challenge with my Elephant Valentine card. That was a freebie image - isn't it darling!? I won 3 images from Sew Many Cards and the Damask Cuttlebug combo folder! Can't tell you how honored and thrilled I am to actually win a challenge. Puts a little fire in you to keep creating, if you know what I mean. Well, thanks for visiting me today. Would love to know what you think of my card. I appreciate all your comments! Thanks again!

Angela, this is so precious and looks just like a bear in a snow globe.. simple love it, but Angela is right he does look so sad.. maybe he need you in the globe keeping him company or maybe the elephant!!!
