A very good morning and a very warm welcome to the
Sugar Nellie "A Recipe For All Seasons" Blog Hop.
I am delighted and honoured to have been asked to join in with this fabulous hop and what a feast of fabulous talent and inspiration the hop has for you. You will have arrived here from the uber talented JUDY if not then please go and start the hop there.
Anyone who knows me well knows that Winter is my favourite season because it includes Christmas yeah I love Christmas so when Karen asked me to join in the hop I just knew I had to creat a Crimbo card for you all. My Recipe for you is ~
Clean & Simple (CAS)
White, Blue & 1 other colour
Add punched elements
Isn't he just the cutest Snowman you have ever seen?
I have coloured the snowman using Prismacolor pencils as I wanted a soft subtle effect
I have added Flowersoft at his feet to make it look like snow.
I add the glue first, then the flowersoft on top and then sprinkle with glamour dust to finish so that it sparkles like snow.
I have used my Martha Stewart branch punch (love this) and layered the branches to make a tree effect then I brushed Stickles on to this which makes it curl up... very effective I think

Glorious CAS - when I saw your name I thought Goodeeeeeee CAS in there too. Love those branches & the sparkly addition to the flower soft a brilliant (oops sorry pun slipt in) idea. Bit hectic with all my rearranging otherwise I'd love to add something here -.. maybe the hours will somehow increase from 24 to 36 in the day. Thanks for a jolly lovely bit of sampling/feating.
