Delightful Challenges

Good Morning!  I have to do a super quick post this morning.  I am hustling around to get ready for my sister Karin to arrive and I'm busy making her something to celebrate her 50th birthday so I have been super short on time.

This week's challenge at Delightful Challenge is....

BLING IT UP

Who doesn't love this sort of challenge?  Glitter, rhinestones, anything shiny!  Here's my take on the challenge.  I am featuring an adorable image from the Just Chillin digi stamp set.


My card's bling'd features are glitter and raindots snowflakes.  Hopefully you can catch the glitter in the next photo.


My card layout inspiration came from Operation Write Home from a couple of weeks ago.  It's just perfect for this little sledding on his wreath.  So cute.  I also pulled a color inspiration of Turquoise, Red and White from (I believe) My Time Made Easy that was from 3 weeks ago.  I think it worked perfectly, don't you?

Supplies:
Image: Just Chillin
Card stock: Neenah Classic Crest
Paper: Border from In My Eyes Storybook
Copics: B000, BG01, BG05, G02, G05, R11, R27, R29
Tools: Heat Gun, Iridescent Ice embossing powder (SU!)
Embellishments: red satin ribbon (Offray), Snowflake Rain Dots (Cloud 9 Designs)

Thanks for stopping by!  I hope that you join us this week.
