Merry Christmas Snow Friends!!

Mojo Monday Sketch Challenge

OH MY GOODNESS!!  This week's Mojo Monday Sketch Challenge was quite the challenge for me!!  Not because I haven't had time to do it, but because I really struggled with it for some reason!  BUT thanks to my friend Nicki challenging me to give it a try, I forced myself to sit down and play with it!  It took SEVERAL tries, with several different color and paper combinations to FINALLY come up with something that I liked!  

I just LOVE the little penguin from the Snow Place stamp set and coordinating Snow Friends Framelits Dies!!  He is SO STINKING cute!!  Don't you think so??  

Here are the dimensions for the card: 

Basic Black CS - 4 1/4 x 11 (scored at 5 1/2), 2 1/2 x 3 1/4, 1 x 4

Garden Green CS - 1 3/4 x 4

Cherry Cobbler CS - 2 1/4 x 4

Whisper White CS - 2 1/4 x 3, 3/4 x 4, scraps for penguin, hat, scarf and holly berries

Winter Wonderland

Winter Wonderland Set of 3 Cards

SO I sat down this morning to play with the Perfect Pines Die Set that I ordered a couple of weeks ago.  I challenged myself to use ONLY the dies to create the trees on the cards, mainly because I purchased the dies to go with my Foxy Friends stamp set and didn't want to use 2 stamp sets on this project.  

Let me tell you, I had a BLAST coming up with different ways to make these trees!!  Please forgive the photos.  I am TRYING to take "good" pics, but they keep falling a bit short of being just "ok".  I ended up taking them outside and setting them on my front porch and actually liked the way they turned out!  lol  The pic on the top turned out pretty good, so I went ahead and used it.  

Dimensions: 

Whisper White CS - 5 /12 x 8 1/2 (scored at 4 1/4), 4 x 5 1/4, scraps for 3 trees
