Pixie Cottage challenge



Hi Everyone! I hope that you are all ready for Christmas! I still have to wrap & bag prezzies but everything is hiding in my closet. Shhhhh! Don't tell the kids! LOL

I'm entering a challenge at Pixie Cottage using this sketch..........



I don't know why but this one was a challenge for me.........maybe that's why they call it a "challenge"..........DUH..........LOL. I just wasn't sure how that dark DP was working with the rest (even though it's part of the Heidi Grace DP collection listed on the post below). But after I added the snowflakes & glitter I decided that it was okay. I also think I was supposed to use ribbon where the dotted dark strip is but my ribbon is buried in my closet under all of those aforementioned prezzies. LOL So what do you think? Be honest! (but not brutally honest........you might hurt my little feelings.....LOL)

The card details are similar to those listed in the post below. Although I used Copic R22 on the heart nestled in the basket instead of R20 (I prefer the R20). And the Spellbinders Nestabilities is "Labels One" (don't you just love those Nesties!!!!).

This darling stamp................."Snowflurry Tilda" can be found at Diana's shoppe here. She offers great customer service & low shipping.

I pray that all is well with you & yours & you're enjoying this Christmas season when we take the time to celebrate our dear Savior's birth.

Thanks for looking!

Huggies & Blessings ~♥♥♥~
