Seriously, you HAVE to see Phindy's Winter Cuties!!! They are so adorable I just know I'm gonna end up getting them ALL!!!
If you came here from Ann's blog - you're on right track. If not - boy, if you have ANY time to spare go back to the challenge blog and start hopping. It's worth it for eye candy only, nevermind the fact that you can WIN yourself some Winter Cuties!! What do you have to do to win? First, you need to visit the DT's blogs and leave a comment at each one. Also, each blog will have a word that you need to collect as you hop along. Put the words together to make a sentence and leave a comment, including your sentence, at the last stop (the challenge blog).
My word is CUTIES.
Now, enough chatting - betcha you are impatient to see the CUTIES:
I used Basic Grey Capella papers on that card, some lace and snowflake punches. And Stickles. Everywhere.
Other than that it's just letting the image do it's work. Happy sigh.

Boots E47/37/35/33/31/41

Annika - two fabulous cards with perfect colouring. I just love the layouts you come up with too. Love your work, and that happy face which is always smiling!
You asked about the shaving brushes (ink dusters) on my WOYWW - I bought them at the Harrogate craft fair on Saturday - they are from www.inkylicious.co.uk. (They came in a pack of 6 but I shared with a friend)! They have a really good website and sell loads of super crafting goodies. Well worth a look I would say!!
Hugs, Sylvia xxx
Your cards are enchanting! Your coloring is brilliant! Love the coloring on the coat!
Annika - your cards are beautiful! I love, love, love the embellies on the first card! The image is just great - what kid hasn't eaten snow? (okay, kids who live where it doesn't snow!)
The litle girl with the teddy bear is adorable too - I love her with the traditional Christmas colors!
Great job - thanks for sharing!

Oh. That's all I can say. These are breathtakingly gorgeous. You know you could enter the first in at Cupcake this week right? Also, you asked me about some flowers and I've been rubbish and only remembered today. I got them at my local shop, but they are on ebay:

I absolutely adore your first card. It is gorgeous.
What can I say that everyone else hasn't? These are just more than Stunning or Beautiful, they're little works of art!! Your coloring just brings any image to life. I can't get over how his little coat looks like it would feel like wool and the tops of his boots all soft and fuzzy. How do you do that girl?!?!?! And the shadows with the little girl and the bear!!! Just amazing!! What I wouldn't give to sit down and watch you color!!!
Hugs,
Wendy
