Flurries of Fun - Magnolia-licious "W"ednesday #6

Hello.

It's time for "W"ednesday Post #6 at the Magnolia-licious Challenge Blog.  This is when some of the DT gals showcase images from either Wee Stamps or Wild Rose Studio that are both being sold at the Magnolia-licious on-line store. 

I've made another Christmas card.  I'm trying to slowly build my Christmas card collection so I won't have to rush around too much when December comes around...LOL.


The card put on display as an easel card...


The colouring work on the image was done with markers.  I've also added glitter to all the snowflakes made with dies and punches--can't really tell on the pictures...tee hee.

I am featuring one of the adorable Wee Stamps images--this one is called Holly.  You can see the rest of the collection HERE.


Challenges for this card:
Sketch Saturday Week #275 - Debra's Sketch (I turned the sketch around 180 degrees and used an oval cardbase instead of square)
Christmas Stampin' All Year Long Challenge #32 - Layers
Craftyhazelnut's Christmas Challenge CHNC 141 - Layer it up
Totally Gorjuss Challenge 200 - Anything Goes
Christmas Cards All Year 'Round September Challenge - Christmas Fairy with a Little Sparkle
Graph'It Colour Challenge - Background Effects
Stamp With Fun Challenge 223- Not Square
613 Avenue Create Challenge #36 - Anything Goes
Crafty Sentiments Designs Challenge - Anything Goes
I ♥ Promarkers Challenge #185 - 3 Different Shapes (oval, square, circle)


Make sure to hop over to the Magnolia-licious Challenge Blog and check out what my teammates have created for the "W"ednesday Post.
