It's laundry day again...when I complain about it, hub's response is enough to make this old gal blush and giggle while she loads that machine. He makes me laugh every day, simply one of the many reasons I love him.
Okay on to the challenges. Three came together nicely, though one might take a minute to think through. The challenges are CAS Colours and Sketches for the colors, Christmas Kickstart for the Snow, and Casology for appreciation.
I used Stampin Up stampin blends in Poppy Parade, Mango Melody, and Highland Heather. My neutral was a bit of gray copic for shadows in the snow. I used distress ink in milled lavender for the ink blended background. A white gel pen provided the snow flakes. The sentiment is part of the MFT set Frosty Friends along with the snowman.
Thanks so much for visiting.
