Winter thanks

Good morning:
Yesterday was a rainy and gloomy day, so you know what that means :) it was a great day to create and I did that for sure :)

I started off by going through the challenges I like and came up with a handful to work on.  These are the two challenges I picked for the first card I worked on.  I am using the Freshly Made Sketches and Curtain Call challenges.  
I  went through my scrap paper and came up with these beautiful winter paper.  I didn't realize until I started writing up this post that the icicle colors didn't match my colors, but I'm still going to submit it because I was thinking icicles.

This card was so much fun to create and I just love all the sparkle.
I'm watching YouTube videos of CHA 2017 and wow, I'm blown away by all the great new products coming up (can we say Tim Holtz is the best and has so many great ideas).

Have a great day

Janet
