Good morning, I hope you're all safe and healthy and coping with life as it is these days, I know it's easier for some than it is for others to accept the necessary restrictions on our lives, hopefully it won't be too much longer before they can be gradually lifted and we can return to some sort of normality. In the meantime keep on crafting!
Our new challenge at Crafty Catz is hosted by our lovely Christine, her chosen theme is 'Winter Fun' (optional as always) and our sponsor is none other than the fabulous
I combined two images on my card and added a stamped sentiment
Snowflake Frame and Snowmen Fun, I went over the lines of the frame digi with a clear sparkle pen and added some Cosmic Shimmer Twinkles here and there, it looks so pretty and sparkly IRL, you can see it a bit better in the photo below which I took under a lamp.
There's loads more to see over at Crafty Catz where my lovely teamies have been busy creating some fun inspiration for you, hope you can find the time to play along.
Thanks for stopping by
have a good and safe weekend
Chris

What a great photography of that darling, sparkly snowflake frame, Chris. I can see all the shimmer and shine, so it must look really fantastic in real life. Your happy snow people look especially festive decked out in blue. It's darling! I feel for lots of my friends who are not dealing well with the COVID restrictions. Emotionally and psychologically, I can "hear" the weariness, toil, and hardship they are facing. Others are doing just fine. It hits all of us in different ways. One of my friends is especially having a hard time because her husband's Alzheimers has radically worsened. He doesn't understand what's happening, refuses medications, and his personality has changed from a caring, loving husband, to a difficult tyrant. I really do feel for her, so am careful to listen to her frustrations without saying much. (I know, hard to believe that I can be quiet, right? giggle). But sometimes friends just need to "let it all hang out" without worry of being judged. My 2nd eye surgery is on Feb 10. Unfortunately, the first surgery triggered the myofascial issues in the left side of my face and eye, so it looks a bit weird and feels uncomfortable, but I can see distances much better. I'm not sure when the 3rd surgery will be scheduled. But I feel grateful this can be done at all, especially during COVID. I heard that the new strain in the UK is very transmissible, and it is found in 28 states here now, too. Be safe, my dearest of blogging friends! hugs, de
Your card is adorable with combo of the two images. We had it -1 this am and now with the sun out it's 14, brrrr. Covid or not it's too cold to go out, lol.

This is super cute Chris. I love those little snowpeople! Our lockdown has been extended here until first week in March and who knows after that. Hard to believe this has been going on for nearly a year. It's slowly becoming the norm but making me appreciate the joy of family and friends even more now.
Your little snowmen dancing in the icy snowflake frame are adorable! Such a sweet little card!
