Hello Dear Friends!
It's time once again for a new challenge over on the Double D Challenge Blog!
I'm hosting today and as you can see by my blog title ... the theme is
Let it Snow! Let it Snow! Let it Snow!
(use anything SNOW related)
Here's the mood board I've created to help inspire you . . .
Well Christmas isn't far away and I'm hoping we have a White Christmas this year. I have so many wonderful childhood memories of winter holidays ... off school, sled riding, building a snowman, having snowball battles with my sisters and the neighborhood kids. I can remember we even built an IGLOO one year and my dad put a light inside for me! That was really cool stuff for a young kid!
So that's what I was thinking of when creating today's card.
Now mind you, I grew up in Pennsylvania and we never had any Moose running through the yard but we certainly saw our share of deer and other critters! LOL
Can you see the sparkle on the snow and the holiday lights on the house? LOL
(oops from this angle it appears one string of lights might be out ... lol ... it happens!)
The dies I have used to create my winter snowball throwing scene are:
Impression Obsession 'Snowball Fight'
Poppystamps 'Winter Cabin'
Poppystamps 'Whittle Moose'
Hunkydory Moonstone Dies 'Prancing Pixies' (icicles)
Hunkydory Moonstone Dies 'A Holly Jolly Christmas' (sentiment)
REMEMBER: We have a fun prize to give away to one lucky player,
Today's prize offering is ...
So be sure to pop over to the Double D Challenge Blog

ReplyDeleteAdorable! I just love this fun snow scene, Darlene. It brings back so many good childhood memories of snow days. Merry Christmas to you and your family!!
ReplyDeleteFABULOUS snowy scene and looks like my place here, except the moose of course LOL. The snow drifts are so pretty with all the sparkle....anywho...love the scene!!
ReplyDeleteThis is such a cute card, Darlene, and it sure bespeaks all the fun of a snow day for the kids! You made me giggle about the one string of lights being out. Yes, it happens! I love the way you added the moose. He looks like he's having as much fun as the kids!
ReplyDeleteSuch fun memories and many like my own, except we never built an igloo. Wonderful winter scene. I just got the poppy Stamp cabin but have not used it yet. Thanks for the inspiration. Merry Christmas.
ReplyDeleteLovely memories and adorable card! Love the icicles and the children playing with the snow!
ReplyDeleteThis is such an exciting scene. It has everything in it. Loving those icicles. Reminds me of the fun we had in the snow when we were young.
ReplyDeleteREally fun scene with all those dies. It sure does look snowy my friend and so beautiful!
ReplyDeleteSuch an adorable card. So much action here, and I love the colors you used. Silhouetting the kids is genius!
ReplyDeleteso cute, I love the fun winter scene you have created here. We made what we called Forts in the snow in the winter, but we didn't have lights in ours :) That die makes a pretty frame for it too!
ReplyDeleteThis card is awesome, love the winter scene you have created. Nice to read your childhood memories. It must have been real fun to play snow ball fight.
ReplyDeleteHave a great day.
