Winter Wishes

I am excited to take part in my first challenge! I found this awesome challenge on Pink Buckaroo and I had to try it for myself.

So here is the "Mashup" Challenge:

1. Make a project using "Snowflakes".
2. Or Make a project with the colors "Whisper White, Pool Party, Midnight Muse, and Basic Black".
3. Or "Mash it Up" and create a "Snowflake Project with the colors Whisper White, Pool Party, Midnight Muse, and Basic Black".

I must admit I was a little intimidated when I first started the challenge but I think the end results are pretty awesome. For the base of the card I used black cardstock and layered a light blue on top of it leaving just a tiny border around the entire card. Next I placed a snowflake pattern paper on the light blue layer. Then I used a scrap of the light blue and embossed it with snow flakes and layered it on top of a strip of black cardstock to set it off. The polka dots strips are layered on matching light blue paper and placed to over lap the middle of the card. I kept the layering look going throughout the entire card with the stamped penguin and word joy. I colored the penguin's scarf and bottom part of his boots with a glossy pen. Finally I cut out 3 snow flakes from glittery paper. Add a little glue and bam! I made a card.

There must be a little magic in the air because as I was completing my card, it started to snow outside :) Thank you The Friday Mashup for the challenge!

Happy New Years, be safe and God Bless.
