Snowbuddies

Here's another scheduled card for you, fingers crossed! I've been playing with the Snowbuddies designs by Karen Middleton for Cuddly Buddly and will show you the other two over the next couple of days. This first one is Charming Snowbuddies, coloured with Copics and cut out with a Nellie's Choice die. The colours are B000, 000, 21 and 23 with G00, 02, 03, 05 plus a touch of red on the berries. For the broom I used E70, 71 and 74 with the cool greys for his hat and the bit on the broom that keeps the head on the stick .. .. you know what I mean!

Here's the card - I used the auto adjust for the colour to try and brighten it up but I'm not sure it worked. I kept things clean and simple with just a piece of ribbon over a Nellie's Choice diecut border and a single sheet of subtle snowflake paper over the base. A smattering of pearls and a sprinkling of Stardust Stickles and job done.

Totally Papercrafts are looking for CAS creations this week, and over at the Fab 'n' Funky challenge blog they are playing bingo - my line is the diagonal with embellishment (pearls), ribbon and die cuts.

  3. The auto adjust looks as if it worked - it certainly looks bright on my screen. I was ogling your Nellie Snellen die-cuts & how cleanly they're cut - I've just taken the plunge to replace my broken Cuttlebug with a Big Shot. Some extra bookselling hours came in handy for that. Love your colours here & especially the way your spotted sheer ribbon piks up on the snowflakes in the patterned paper.
