Show us your Winter Wonderland!! don't forget to direct link your creation to Mr. Linky on Danni's blog so we can see what you have done... if uploading to SCS/PCP/gallery, please use the keyword FBW87...

When i think about winter, the first thing that comes to mind is SNOWFLAKES... i just LOVE snowflakes... hard to believe when we don't have any in Hawaii... i guess that makes me appreciate snowflakes even more... and believe me when i say A LOT!
I originally began this challenge with this card here... using Angel Anya from TGF, i colored her in copic colors mauve shadow, pale lilac and prune... the white hair streaks are glittered with stickles and her wings are fun flocked... i finally found the cuttlebug snowflake embossing folder and just had to rip it open and use it... so i embossed a piece of lavendar CS to use as one of my layers... i love playing with purple, but it's so hard to find pretty papers... i actually found this DP (by K&Co) in the wedding section of our local craft store... it has tiny flowers on it that i thought passed as snowflakes... this beautiful ribbon flower reminded me of a poinsettia and it made a perfect addition... i punched snowflakes using MS and Marvy punches and colored some with copics... wanted to match the pearls on the flowers, so i glued tiny pearls to the centers of the snwflakes and onto her bow.... whatcha think of this card?!?!? then i got even more inspired and did this....

made a little gift bag that measures about 5x7... using the same elements from my original card i tried to case it on the bag... i used eyelets and ribbon to make the handles and everything else is pretty much the same... then after doing that, i came up with this....

an altered magnet frame... i didn't use the embossing folder on this one, because it would have gotten smashed... the BG and snowflakes are actually inside... the post-it pad and Angel Anya are glued directly to the outside of the frame....

and here is the "Complete Package".... or as i call it "Angel Freight"... hehehe!!! can you tell i just LOVE snowflakes... LOL... so with all this inspiration from my one card, i'm also going to enter this into 2 more challenges:

1. Club Anya - Complete Package

2. ROP Challenge 26 - Alter Something

Now fly on over and see what the rest of the FBW team has awaiting for you.... oooh this is a magical winter!
