Let it Snow! MHK & PIP Challenge

Happy Holidays Everyone!!  I hope your Thanksgiving was a beautiful time that brought you closer to your creator.  I know that I thank Him every day for the blessings in my life, my husband and children, kittens! each sun rise, late Autumn air... so much I am overwhelmed, at times, with gratitude ~ but most of all for the free gift of salvation through his son Jesus Christ. (ThankYou God)
Well, it's time for another PIP Challenge! MHK Designs is this weeks sponsor and you can win some beautiful images from them just for playing along.  Post you latest project on the PIP Challenge Blog Spot ~ this weeks theme . . . . ANYTHING GOES!!

As Luck would have it, this week MHK is having an amazing sale on their already amazingly low prices!!! So be sure to visit their site and use the code CYBER17!!


I  thought it would be fun to use a Spring/Summer stamp in a Winter situation so I chose the frame from  Flutter & Fly  and used it to accent the Let It Snow! script from the  set Snow Babies.

I love the fun font of this sentiment and right now I'm thinking "Let it snow!! Enough with this rain already!!" so the card may be more of a plea than a nostalgic song reference!! 

I have a fun Dec 1st post planned for you so I will see you then :)  In the meantime, don't forget to make a card for the PIP Challenge!!  What am I saying???  You can enter any paper crafted project to our challenge, it doesn't need to be a card ;) 

Have fun, be a cheerful giver, and bless you always.

Gratitude


       Hello Again PIP Challenge Followers!!  This week we have an anything goes challenge # 1746.  Di's Digis is our prize sponsor so for your chance to win just post your creation on the PAMMIES INKY PINKIES CHALLENGE BLOG !!

I am feeling quite thankful this time of year, a perfect time to use this sentiment and adorable fox from Unity Stamp Company Woodland Fox 



I also used my favorite set of swirls from HOT OFF THE PRESS "Feathers" masked into the background all on watercolor paper!  

For an Autumn flavor I used a yellow green fade out,  colorful acrylic leaves and Nuvo dots for accents.
Then I had some fun using an envelope flap die to die cut the sides and a flap to attach the back of the card so that  gold would show through the front.  Such a beautiful combination of color and texture I think <3  Hope you have enjoyed and feel inspired!!  I will be watching for your entries                                                    on the PIP Challenge Blog. 


Have a Beautiful Autumn and a Blessed
and Happy Thanksgiving
