New PICK 3 Challenge

 Hello Friends ... 

Are you ready for the upcoming Snow Storm??  
As for me, I'm just going to hide out in my crafting cave until it passes! LOL

So, today I'm joining in on a Brand New Challenge Blog you'll have to check out & play along in!  It's called PICK 3 Challenge Blog.  Here's the board for their first challenge where you'll choose THREE elements to use in/on your project.

 

 The three I chose for today's card are:
TREE - TEXTURE - LAYERS

Here's my card . . .


 I began with a background panel embossed with an older Darice snowflake embossing folder onto white card stock then sponged over with TH blue ink.  Next I created the mounds of snow by tearing strips of white card stock scraps.

That was the beginning of my layers.  Next I die cut from various green scraps of card stock from an Impression Obsession 'Fir Trees' die set and stiple brushed with white paint.

Next I chose these adorable Frantic Stamper puppies (Oscar, Spot & Trixie ... only used 2 of the 3) for the focus characters and added a Creative Expressions sentiment.


Oh and I finished it off with a pretty Sue Wilson snowflake corner die cut!

Well that's it for me today. 

Take care, stay warm and thanks for stopping by today! 

 As always . . .
