Good morning folks!
It's time for a new challenge over at
This week it is all about the guys in our life with challenge
Of late I have been making a dent on my Christmas cards and today I managed to get one very special little mans card done :) Dylan is fascinated with Santa at the moment and I thought Crafty Ann's - Santa Stuck Snow-globe would be perfect for him. I took Santa out of the snow-globe for this card and being for boy went with C & S and the classic red and white combo.
Now we all know I am not a huge fan of C & S (only cause I suck at them and can not do C & S) but I absolutely love how this card fell into place. I admit, if I was not going to distress the edges in any way I had to add some stitching and for some texture to the card on the snow drops and around the chimney I went over them with some pearly puffy paint. And Santa has been colored with Spectrum Noirs. Dylan hates flowers and all the girly things so I think he should be as happy with this as I am :) *fingers crossed*
As always we have a fab prize for one lucky person who plays along with us this fortnight.
