A Card for two Challenges

Good Evening Ladies this card has taken me lot longer than I anticipated, as I had to make three toppers before I got it right, as each time I finished cutting them out I messed them up, so I was begining to pull my hair out by the time I got this image right. Anyway Ive created this card for two challenges the Just Magnolia Challenge, which is a "Sketch by Donalda" and Winter Wonderlands "Winter Sports" so Ive used this sweet image of Edwin on his sleigh, Ive stamped him onto white card before colouring him with my copic pens, then cut him out with a oval Nestabilitie die, and using the scalloped one for the mount. The sentiment is another of the Magnolia stamps thats been stamped onto white card then mounted onto a double ended tag diecut.

The base card is a 7"x 7" white card with a first layer of red card with one of two papers from the beautiful new "Christmas Dreams" paper set from Bearlymine Designs, you can see from the top of this blog that Donna has a special sale on at the moment to celebrate her birthday, I do hope you will pop across to her site and crab some bargains while you can. The first paper is a very pretty paper with hearts, scrolls and hearts on a red base, the second mount is a pretty green/white paper thats been cut for the sketch, then across the middle I have wrapped a organza wired ribbon and attach it to the back of the first mount.

The mounted image was then mounted in the centre and the sentiment at the bottom on the right hand side. To finish of I have created four snowflakes with punched out Martha Stewart ones dipped into some crushed glass glitter then positioned in two places on the card.

This card is to be entered in the following Challenges:-
