CCT Anything Goes

I hope you all had a fabulous Christmas and got a few crafty goodies. I'm actually blogging for the 2nd week in a row, which is pretty good considering my efforts over the past few months! 
The theme at CCT this week is Anything Goes and these are a few tags which I made using Lawn Fawn and Mama Elephant products and Distress Oxides.  I coloured the images with Copics.


Happy New Year x

CCT Anything Goes

At last I've managed to make a card! I have to admit that over the past few months I have totally lost my love of card making so decided to take a break, hopefully I'll be making a few more over the coming months.
This card is for this week's CCT challenge which is Anything Goes. I saw the card idea on the Seven Hills Crafts blog and loved it as it is so effective. The stamps, dies and sentiment are all Lawn Fawn. I coloured the image with Copics, added some Fluffy Stuff to the hats and a few highlights with a Posca white pen. The snow in the background is embossed with white embossing powder .


I hope you have a fabulous Christmas x
