Winter Sports

We were having some really nice weather here this week in Malta..  warm and sunny.. just beautiful... but not today, it's raining, and I was hoping this nice weather would stretch for the weekend as well .. o well, it's the time of year to expect rain..

I have another Christmas card today and I am using one of Stamp Fairy's really cute images. This week Stamp Fairy is sponsoring the ABC Christmas Challenge, and so some of the DT girls decided to play along as well. .. me too..  another excuse to make me another Christmas card. 


For my card I decided to use Donny Ice-Skating stamp as the theme for this challenge is WINTER SPORTS and I thought it was just perfect. A really quick card today .. the nice paper, which was a magazine freebie, did the job... I just added some glitter on the lovely trees and snow, stamped sentiment and  snowflakes randomly ... 

.. and of course coloured cute Donny with my promarkers, which I then cut out and popped up with foam. 

I am entering my card in these challenges today.
