ASFOS & Everybody Art!

Good Morning!
Time for 2 New Challenge Cards to share with you all today, I made these rather early last week so it took me a while to actually remember what the themes were lol

This card fits the Challenges at:

Over at EVERYBODY ART we want to see some Flags somewhere on your work! I was a bit stuck myself for this Challenge but luckily the Papers that came with the latest issue of SC&P fitted in perfectly, teamed with this Hanglar Image I think they work rather well together!

This is also my 2nd Christmas Card of the year ... think I may have got bitten by the Christmas bug now! I have also Heat Embossed both the Snowflakes & Embossed Paper with Holographic & White Embossing Powders.

Tilda with Straw Hat!

Good Evening!
You may have noticed that I have changed my Blog Layout yet again lol I simply wasn't happy enough with the previous one but I LOVE the new one, so don't worry I won't go changing it around again anytime soon! lol

I found myself experimenting a bit today with the way I colour Tilda's hair and thought I would share the result with you! I think I prefer this way of making it look like it is 'shining'. Do you prefer this way or the previous way I coloured her?
I have to admit this card is one of my faves that I have made for a while :)
