In Stitches or 2 patterns at Winter Wonderland


Hello,

I seem to be having a real problem with blogger today as nothing seemed to post when it was scheduled to.

Anyway it's the turn of the Icicles again over at The Winter Wonderland Challenge & we are doing things a little differently & having 2 themes per challenge to give you a bit more variety.

 So our first dual challenge is 'Stitching real or faux/Use two (or more) designer papers.  A nice easy one with lots of themes.
We are sponsored this week by Michele of MR Designs,  who is offering the winner a  €10.00 (euros) voucher and she does have a fabulous range of themed papers and embellies, and her Christmas/winter ones are amazing.




I have used the gorgeous Winter Frosts Papers from MR Designs, I do love these papers. I have distressed the edges using a Tim Holtz tool.


I have coloured up Mr Frosty from Wee Stamps using Copic Markers & I have coloured him to match the papers.

I have used one of the techniques from this months Kit & Clowder Create & Learn class to do the background & I was really pleased with how it turned out.
