I'm dreaming of a white Christmas...

Good Morning everyone...

While you are reading this Wednesday morning I will be sat on a train wending its way to Derby to take me to another wonderful Copic workshop with lovely 
Faye Wynn-Jones, (stampinfluffnstuff)! Exciting!
The Challenge this week at 
is 
White on White
All the details can be found

This week's prize is from 
LIVE & LOVE CRAFTS 
and is a
£10 VOUCHER!

The next time anyone mentions White on White I am 'pulling a sicky'!!!
I found this card a real challenge and have come to the conclusion it is because my crafty world is a colourful one!

I decided to make a little Christmas scene using some die cuts and glitter,
despite being in a state of panic throughout, I did end up happy with my card.

I have used two different sorts of card, both white, one is linen, yet in the photo they look completely different colours - in real life the card is totally white!

...and here we are, I'm dreaming (or is that having a nightmare)! about a white Christmas!

This is a beautiful card Sue. a really lovely snow scene. All the different textures really bring it to life and I love your poinsettias, they look like they're covered in snow crystals.
Hugs,

Well no one would ever know that you didn't enjoy making this fabulous piece of artwork Sue.... it is truly beautiful........ I always love the effect of white on white, and you certainly have mastered it here! The beautiful frame and glittery snow are perfect to surround the scene you created. Trouble is... being so good at it, you're going to get asked to do more!!

Big hugs

I am normally hoping to NOT have a white Christmas because getting to work in the snow is something I dread...but I'm up for it this year! Either way, your snow scene captures everything that is beautiful about a winter snow scene including the gorgeous sparkle :-) It's a shame it drove you so crazy to make because it looks utterly divine and I love it!
To be fair, WOW themes always used to freak me out too but I think I have got a little better at them with some practice.
Big hugs, Kat xx
