TLC Winter Wonderland Hop!


Today is the start of the Winter Wonderland Hop and we hope you can hop along with us! If you just stumbled along to my blog from somewhere in the blog hemisphere you will want to go back to Create With TLC and start from the beginning. We are giving out freebies all along the way from every stop on our hop!
My image is called Snowball Fight Vintage. It is yours for free at the end of my post! I combined it with one of Paulette's sentiments to complete the scene! Isn't it magic when you play in the freshly fallen snow? I love a good snowball fight and making "snow angels".
My image and sentiment were printed on cardstock and then colored with my Copic markers. I love coloring...it kind of takes me back to those days of my youth...haha! I cut it out using a SB die. I then used red and yellow card stock to then frame the image. The houndstooth paper is from Recollections that was placed over my card base.I used white puff paint to add dimension to the piles of snow and the snowballs. A big red ribbon with bow finishes it off.
The next stop on your hop is Laurence. Have fun!


(the free image has been removed...congrats to all who grabbed it!)


I would like to also enter the following challenges:
Craft Your Day Away - Buttons or Bows
Crazy 4 Challenges #115 - Snow
Dutch Dare #140 - Recipe (use at least 3) ribbon, image & patterned paper
