I took a little time to play today and made a fun page. This page is for the Anything Goes Challenge over at Jellypark. I haven't played with them for a long time and was happy to finally get a chance!
I've created an 8" page that will be going into a Winter/Christmas album that I'm making. I think this just might be the first page. The sweet image I used is "girl in winter coat hat and gloves" and can be found in the Jellypark Shop HERE. I believe I won this image in a previous challenge. I've layered some papers, used some punches, and even pulled out the decorative scissors to cut the snow. I added some inking and the sparkled everything up with stickles.
The leaves on our trees have been incredibly beautiful this year. Today a big wind blew through and some of the trees are almost bare. I say when the pretty leaves are gone then it's time for winter, and that sparkling blanket of white! I might have a bit of a wait though since it's been 22 degrees Celcius.
What about you? Are you ready for winter? :o)

Awesome as usual Nancy! We are experiencing some warmer weather here right now as well...I'm not looking forward to snow yet, but can hardly wait for the slower pace in life it seems to bring!
Hugs,

Gorgeous card, Nancy. I love the snow you created and all the layers to this card. It's wonderful. Such a cute image too. Beautiful work. We're going to thoroughly enjoy the blessings of mid 20C temperature the next few days. Winter can wait. It's long enough! Especially after last year. xx Kathryne

This is so cute Nancy! Love the way you used the background paper to create this little scene.
Such a cute scene.
I just enjoyed myself admiring your coloring on this little cutie. Nice shadows in the coat folds and even a shine on her boots. Fantastic job my friend! :-)
Beautifully done...I love the "feeling" of this page. Makes me want to snuggle in with a cup of hot chocolate! Thanks for playing our "Anything Goes" challenge at Jellypark Friends.
Hugs,

Your card is sooo nice Nancy! A really beautiful winter scene. It reminds me of my childhood when we had snow up to your neck! But that was a long time ago ....
Well, I admit, my bones have become a bit sensitive to cold! :)
Have a nice sunday evening
Hugs Rosi
Nancy, this is fabulous. Just looking at this page brings me great joy!! I'm not ready for snow or cold weather though (smile). I hope you share more pages from the album with us when they're done. Blessings!
Nancy it's lovely to have you joining in with us again at Jellypark !
Great layout I especially love your use of decorative scissors on the snow and, of course, your fabulous colouring x
Thanks for playing along with us at jellypark friends and good luck x
((hugs)) Suzie xoxo
You chose one of my favourite Winter images :o), the card is beautiful, fab colours. Thank you for sharing it with us over at Jellypark Friends for our Anything Goes Challenge. Mel :o)
Not ready yet Nancy, but that is why I live in the southern part of the states. Lol. But your card makes me think about it and Christmas. Beautiful my friend.
I'm not ready for real snow yet Nancy but could look at your beautiful page anytime ! The papers are lovely and your colouring compliments them beautifully! The snowflake punch is so pretty !
Details, details, so full of details! This is one fun card to look at. How in the world do you get such a nice white border around the image of the girl you fussy cut?!???
Speaking of the girl...and I did. She is so cute. Looks like she the winter herald running through the town gleeful in the snow :D
I love this card. Did I already say that? Well, it is worth repeating. This is just so totally COOL. All your layers and the sparkly bits. AWESOME.
Love you - Leslie
