Good morning, Crafty Catz challenges are back ! For this first challenge of 2025 we are sponsored by
with 2 lovely digis as a prize for our lucky winner.
The theme for this fortnight is Anything Goes
the optional twist is
Clean and Simple.
I used a sweet digi I already owned, Wellie Boots, she's all coloured up with Copic markers. I added a stamped sentiment, a swoosh of green Distress Ink , stamped and embossed some little white daisies with tiny pearls for the centres.
I really knew I didn't like snow and ice- nasty dangerous stuff! Came a cropper yesterday on a patch of black ice, fell onto my back and bumped my head. It hurt! Fortunately no broken bones, just black and blue and stiff and aching so it could have been a whole lot worse. I think I'll stay indoors now until the spring!
Thanks for visiting
Chris

Beautiful colouring on your image Chris, and lovely eye catching background swirl - very creative. Sorry you’ve had a fall on the ice .. I must admit I haven’t ventured out at all this week as we live in a side road which is completely snowed and iced up and very treacherous. Take care and stay safe xx

Super CAS card, Chris. The image is so cute and I love the simple diagonal pattern for the background. Sorry to hear you’ve had a fall, hope you recover soon. Fortunately the snow only lasted a few hours here. Roll on spring!

Chris, your card is absolutely stunning! The clean and simple design really highlights the beautiful coloring and those adorable daisies. I'm so sorry to hear about your fall—black ice is no joke. Wishing you a speedy recovery and a warm, cozy winter indoors.
ReplyDeleteA lovely card Chris, sweet little image and super colours. I do hope you are feeling much better after your fall, the ice has been really bad around here and as we live on a hill its hard to walk safely. Take care of yourself.

It was a very full year and I hope to do better this year with commenting on my 'blog' buddies posts. We are a disappearing breed!
