Angel Freight

{{If you are here for my Dare post, please scroll down. Thank you!}}

Welcome to the 87th edition of Flutter by Wednesday!!! We hope you'll flutter with us this week!

This week, we have added an addtional challenge for you... a WINTER theme... you MUST use a butterfly, fairy or angel and create a winter theme on your creation... we would love to see anything that fits our requirements... some ideas for you: cards, scrapbook pages, ornaments, etc... 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!
Hurry now and get fluttering on your winter creations... i hope to see you linked up with Mr. Linky... Thank you for taking the time to visit me today! i hope you enjoy what you see and i thank you again for the wonderful support and love you leave here on my blog!!! Muwah!!!
