Here is this cute little guy one more time. I think I have one more of these printed and colored already so you will be seeing him again soon. Today I used the sketch at Tuesday Morning Sketches. I turned the card the opposite direction of their diagram but you still get the general idea of the sketch. Die Cutting Divas has a Snowman or Snowflake challenge. Today instead of using my silhouette to cut my rectangles I got out my Spellbinder dies and my Cuttlebug. I need to do that more often because I have quite a collection of dies. Sparkles Christmas Challenge has a lots of glitter challenge. Its difficult to see but there is coat of sugar glitter on the scarf on the snowman and there is some glitter on the snowflakes in the dark background paper. Crafty Gals and Through the Craft Room Door both have an Anything Goes Challenge.

Seasons Greetings
This afternoon I am cleaning off my desk and trying to use up all the already colored images on my desk. This one I think is left over from a couple Christmas's ago. So finally it has found its place. I used the sketch at Freshly Made Sketches for this card. I had to change the direction of the card but I am sure they will understand that. To finish the inside of this card I added a couple layered Snowflakes and a Christmas Sentiment in blue to match the card for the Creative Knockouts challenge. The camera makes it difficult to read the sentiment but in person it looks great. Brown Sugar Challenges has an Anything Goes theme. Cute Card Thursday has a Cool Colors Challenge.

Snow tubing
It was late last night when I finally went to sleep. I printed several things and took them to bed with me to color. I didn't realize until I started putting this card together that I printed the image too big for the sketch I had picked out. Oh well I improvised and made it work anyway. This image is from Little Miss Muffett and I will use it in the Anything Goes Challenge there.
The Following are Anything Goes Challenges:

Avery
Glitter N Sparkle has a New Beginnings Challenge. I wasn't real sure what to do. Then I got to thinking about my Son's new baby he is expecting in March. Today was a good day to get a jump on the shower gift cards. Crafty Sentiments also has a Something New Challenge.
Cocoa Penguin
Good Morning! We are expecting a tiny little bit of snow here. We so seldom get snow at all so when it is mentioned we all get excited. I printed this little penguin smaller than I really wanted to but decided to use it anyway. The sketch came from Sketch Saturday. I wanted the image to really pop so I went with White on White at the top and a print at the bottom. Imagine That has a Joys of the Season Challenge. Cocoa is definitely my joy of the winter season. Tuesday Throw Down has A Winter Critters Challenge. Through the Craft Room Door and Penny's Paper Craft Challenges both have Anything Goes as their theme.

Lighthouse
The Just Add Ink Challenge this week is Add an "N". I wasn't sure what to do with that so I decided to do this Nautical themed card. I used the color scheme from Cupcake Inspirations. Poppy Cream and Gold. I think that is going to be it for me tonight. I feel a warm bath and a book in my near future.
Peace on Earth
This is yet another card I wanted to do at Christmas but never found the time. I saw that Crafting When We Can and A Gem of a Challenge both still had a Christmas Challenge I knew what I wanted to do. This is from the Silhouette Store and is called a tunnel card. There are only two cuts so it is very simple. The Peace on Earth is actually cut in the back piece and the light shines through the white on the front. I love how it looks. It only appears pink here because the only candle I could lay my hands on for the picture was red. There are also several Anything Goes Challenges ending soon that I will submit this card in.

Snow flake Pop Dot
It has been a rainy yucky start tot he new year. I guess if it means we will have a rainy year ahead that might be a good thing. Today I spent trying to catch up on a few things and just making the best of the gloomy day. I made this pop dot card a few days ago and never posted it. Today I want to post it in the Tuesday Morning Sketches Anything Goes Challenge. I also notice there are several other Anything Goes Challenges that end real soon.
