Enjoy the Simple Things

Oh, I love the look of snow glistening in the sunlight.  I like looking at it mostly from inside a warm house.  We don't have any snow right now, and that's okay.
I had fun putting glittering 'snow' on my card using Stickles.  Can't hardly see it in the photo snippet, but its there and very pretty!!  imho, lol.

I made an easel card for a change of pace.  They're actually pretty easy!  And I like easy.
As is usually the case, I water-colored the image with Distress inks.  I also used Distress ink on the embossing folder before putting the cardstock inside.  Then I added the Stickles to the raised snowflakes.
This card is for these challenges:
Delightful Inspirations - use image 'for the birds snowman'
PaperPlay - layers
Meljens - hearts
Delightful - hearts
Crafty Sentiments - my fav things (Stickles, Nesties, Distress inks)
Paper Playtime - use a digi
Thanks for stopping by!

Hello Peggysue! Thanks for visiting my blog and leaving such a lovely comment! Don't cut yourself short girl, I love your easel card! Your water colouring is amazing and I love that you incorporated 2 D2D's images. The coloured embossed background is a wonderful effect too. Awesome job!
Hugs, Kathie
