Creative Inspirations - Christmas in August


My card today is my DT card for the Creative Inpirations challenge, this fortnight's theme set by Jude is Christmas in August and I have chosen the gorgeous Mo Manning image Bronte and Bella Ice Skating - I just love this one! I coloured it using Promarkers and Sakura Gelly Roll pens. I used some of last year's scraps of backing paper from Southfield Stationers and DCWV and used Stickles for added sparkle. The ribbon is from my stash and the stamped snowflakes are Stampin Up.

The sponsor for this challenge is the fantastic -

Artful Inkables - Bling it on Baby

Great use of scraps. The snowflakes are my favourite touch. I love digi images and a chance to use up those scraps with the Digital Tuesday challenge was great. Now I'm enjoying looking at what others made - such inspiration!
