ANYTHING BUT A CARD....

Anything but a card is this weeks challenge for you over at JUST CUTE BEARS and FRIENDS....this challenge will untill Jan 2nd so you've plenty of time to join in....look forward to seeing what you come up with.
I decided to make a snow globe....well not actually the snow globe but to decorate the inside,these are photo snow globes readily available and cheap to buy on the high street...i got mine from Home Bargains £1.29.
I've used one of the new Meljen images "Penguins Little Letter",coloured with Copic markers and Prisma's and a little glamour dust for extra sparkle.
This image along with so many other gorgeous ones can be purchased from WHIMSY STAMPS...digi images are just perfect,they can be rotated,flipped,resized...so many options.

The other side of the snow globe i've added a sentiment from the "Season's Greetings" set by Ann (Raindrop Echo Designs)....again perfect for resizing to suit your needs,and can also be purchased from WHIMSY STAMPS.
I'm entering this into the following challenges :-
CREATIVE INSPIRATIONS (Wed)......Christmas decorations...no cards.
DUTCH DARE CARD CHALLENGE (Thurs).....Christmas card/tag or ornament.
FUSSY AND FANCY FRIDAY CHALLENGE.....Anything but a card.
STAMP SOMETHING (Fri).....Christmas colour combo somethings.
WINTER WONDERLAND....Penguins and Polar Bears.
Well that's about it for now....thank you to all who took up the challenge with us last week and hope you can come join in the fun this week.
Have a lovely Sunday
Take care
