not amused by having to redo this post thanks (?) to Blogger having a major hissy fit, especially after having to have several goes to load it the first time . due to another hissy fit.................at least, thanks to Blogger, the deadline has been extended for bah humbug 18, so I can actually redo it.
The challenge was to use green or a recycled element - I am totally out of green card, so it had to be recycled, and the image came from a card I received last year which had fortunately escaped the recycling bin! I dotted cutout snowflakes onto a blue base card, and sprayed it with sapphire glimmermist - it doesn't show up too well on the scan, so will try to get a photo this weekend if the weather stays camera-friendly . I trimmed the image down, rounded the corners, and matted it onto gold card, also with rounded corners, then onto the base card. very simple - had to be, I ran out of time this week!photo now added, snowflakes show up better here - sorry for gravel background!
This is a lovely image and a really nice card. I had problems with Mr Bloggr this morning - told me I didn't have a blog and wouldn't let me leave any comments.

Yep, Mr Blogger has been driving me nuts all week because I haven't been able to comment and I'm just too thronged with the wedding next week to go back and comment on multiple posts like I usually do. I hate missing posts too.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you managed to post this in the end Veronica. It such a simple but beautiful image and you have turned it into a lovely card.
Hugs
