In the Lane . . . Snow is Glistening

This card was a bit more sparkly than I anticipated.  I forget how fine glitters tend bring forth all their static when put behind some window plastic in a shaker.  But decided it was worth a shot for Try it on Tuesday where the prompt was Christmas Sparkle.  

Definitely some static in my shaker.  But perhaps it adds interest.  

And over time some of that will dissipate.  In the meantime . . . it does "glisten"!  

I hope you found some time to create today.

Black and White and Red all Over?

The prompt at Shopping Our Stash was "What's Black and White and Red All Over?"  

The mere question takes me back to jokes as a child, but I just went with the creative piece here to create a piece with that color combination . . . 

I did add some silver for my bumper!  But for the most part, I stuck with the color combination.  I love this set from The Stamps of Life, and wanted to create a holiday shaker. 

Maybe not a ton of black . . . but check out my shiny tires.  

I hope you find some time to create today.

Hey There for Always Fun Challenges

Went with a polar bear for this card, inspired by the prompt at Always Fun Challenges

This little critter is from a set I got last year - Best Dressed Critters.  I dressed him in a hat a scarf that are paper-pieced using new pattern paper.  

I used the two patterns on the left side of the card for the scarf and hat. 

 

I hope you find some time to create today.
