Penny Black Saturday Challenge 6

Great response again last week to Tracy's sketch and I loved visiting you all to see your fabulous takes on the challenge and you sure do love your Penny Black stamps.

The challenge this week on Penny Black Saturday is ....Christmas..."Snow Much Fun" to incorporate snow on your card in some way. Let me tell you the weather we have been having here it wasn't hard to imagine snow.....it's been freezing..more like November than June. I always think that snow on a card has to have glitter on it and boy oh boy try getting a piccie of anything with glitter on it....you wouldn't believe how many shots I took of this card before I got one that was half decent and you didn't need sunglasses for the glare.

I do so love snowmen images and look away now if you are of a nervous disposition but a few years ago when stamping sort of went a little bit out of fashion...I sold off loads of my Christmas stamps including some gorgeous Penny Black snowmen.....I know what you're thinking..shock horror... "HOW COULD YOU?" well it's a decision I regretted almost as soon as I had done it....so due to the lack of PB Christmas stamps in my stash..something I will have to rectify...I have used a Stickeroo image.......IS THAT ME OFF THE CHRISTMAS CARD LIST OR AM I FORGIVEN!!!

• Paper: Sandylion "Snowy Night
• Snowman & Blue Snowflakes: Penny Black Stickeroos..Every Christmas
• Snowflakes: Quickutz Die
• Sentiment: Cut with Cricut George & Basic Shapes
• Rub-on's: Doodlebug Simply Sweet & All Mixed Up

I created the snow effect by applying PVA Glue quite thickly and sprinkling with glitter.Finished off by doodling some snowflakes onto the wording to match the snowflakes around the image.
