Winter Wonderland - Heartfelt Creations

Happy Wednesday everyone!

It's time for a little inspiration from Heartfelt Creation!

This week I have a card with a winter scene using the Winter Season Set from the Gateway to the Season Collection.

(Click on photo for a closer look)



The image is colored with pencils and mineral spirits with Shell White Glitter added for the snow.  The mat on the cardbase is made with Christmas themed paper from the Daphne Paper Collection that I stamped the sentiment and snowflake on.

Make sure to visit the Heartfelt Creations Blog to see all the beautiful creations this week by the designers!  Also, check out a little peek of the new collection coming out next week!

I'm submitting this to the following challenges:

Word Art Wednesday Challenge #92 - Anything Goes

Blessings!

  8. One of the biggest adjustments I had to get used to living here in the desert is that there are no more white Christmas celebrations, and I really do miss that. So, when I see a scene like this, it really makes me think of home (the far north). This is just lovely, and it's nice to see a scene like this in the middle of the summer. I love that image and you've done an amazing job with it in true Kathy style! Thanks so much for stopping by to share this lovely card in our challenge this week. It's such a blessing when you do, and I thank you for it!
    Have a blessed week,
