Oh What Fun

The current challenge at Jingle Belles ends tomorrow and I wanted to play along so I had to hurry and get a card made this afternoon!

They have a guest this challenge, Leslie Turner, and her prompt was "create a project that includes snow... snowflakes, snowmen or a snowy landscape".

I went with a digital image from Mo Manning called Valerie in Winter. There are 3 images in the set and they are all adorable but I especially love this particular image. We lost our beautiful beagle mix Spike Sept.15, 2016 and this winter has made me miss him even more, as we have over 4 ft of snow and I think about how we had to shovel a pathway in the yard for him during our snowy winters. All you could see was his black and white head bobbing up and down on the path, peeking out over the snow drifts. 

After I sized the image to what I wanted I printed it out, cut the image area out with a die and then colored it with copics. The sentiment is an older retired one from SU and I thought it was perfect for this image.

I'm also entering this card in the DP2 Anything Goes challenge for Mo Manning images!

Thanks for stopping by!
