Farm Fresh Friday - Let it SNOW!

Another Farm Fresh Friday, WOW, time really does fly when you're having fun! ;)
I loved being part of the previews, SO much FUN!! Did you girls get your fave stamps already?
This week's challenge is to use some kind of snow or snow element (snowflakes, liquid applique, glitter, flowersoft, etc.) on your project this week!



I used another sentiment from the newly released sentiment set 'Because of You' (LOVE these!!), I wanted to show how versatile they really are by using one of the stamps for a non traditional Christmas card. Hope you like it! The 'snow element' on my card is the patterned paper (it has little snow flakes on it) & the snowflake cut outs)

Don't forget to play along this week, the prize is the new & cuddly Oliver & Amelia 'Fuzzy Wuzzy'-a FULL 4x6 set!

Circus Themed Anya Card

I made this card for last weeks Farm Fresh Friday challenge, I made the card a couple of days ago. I've also sent it in for th GDT call that was going on last week at TGF, but unfortunately I didn't make the team. I'll keep on trying though, there's always next time ;o)
Creating this card was a lot of fun, these stamps sure are a pleasure to work with!





The assignement for the GDT call was t make a Circus themed card. I think I succeeded at that. I used bright colours, different shapes, gave 'Birthday Anya' a make over and made her look like a Circus Announcer: turned her hat into a black high hat and dressed her in the same colours they dress in.
Doesn't she look fab with her black high hat? The gems she's juggling where clear gems, but I've coloured them with my copics to match the papers.

Of course this is what she usually looks like. Cute!

Recipe:

Papers: ??
Stamps: The Greeting Farm
Colour medium: Copic Sketch Markers
Embellishments: Gems; Melissa Francess
Tools: Fiskars; borderpunch, Spellbinders; Nestabilities

Thank you for stopping by. Have a fabulous weekend,
