My card today is one that I made for my regular Friday post on the Great Impressions Blog. I wanted to experiment with some Tim Holtz distress markers and a water brush. I saw a video on the Deconstructing Sketch blog and thought I would give it a try.
This super cute snowman stamp - "frosty Friends G289 was the perfect stamp to use.
I paired my image up with patterned paper from the Basic Gray "fruitcake collection".
Added a twine bow, a banner flag cut from the MFT flag stax die, stamped my sentiment from the stamp "It's Christmas - D453 and that completed my card.
Time to close this post and do some Christmas stuff. So until next time.........God bless.
Some other challenges:
1. C.R.A.F.T. blog has a "winter" challenge.
2. Craft Us Crazy has a christmas/winter challenge.
3. Paper Crafting Journey has an "anything christmas" challenge.
4. Outlawz Twisted Thursday challenge is to add snowflakes.
5. Raise The Bar has a "let it snow" challenge.
Mary this is adorable and the twine finishes it off beautifully.

Your card is adorable! Love that sweet trio of snowmen and your coloring is fabulous using the distress markers! Sadly, mine sit on the shelf and aren't used much. I finished up my wrapping and shopping on Thursday and that's always such a good feeling. Now I can concentrate on cleaning house and fixing some food. Have a great w/e!
