Sharing the magic




Here is my attempt at the current colour challenge for Merry Monday at Always playing with Paper:
I had a difficult time photographing this one - the colour of the sentiment is light, but not quite as light as it appears in the photo. The addition of the bling in the top corner is meant to match with Island indigo but again it is coming up lighter in my photo.

I would also like to share at:

Thanks for stopping by! The weather here has been rather depressing. The temp was well above zero for two days straight and we had hours and hours (like a day and a half) of rain - not good when you are into winter sports! I had a ski event planned for yesterday - I was taking a group of ten children who are blind and visually impaired skiing for the first time (with lots of helpers of course!) but had to cancel because of the weather. I am totally bummed out! I don't see any skiing for us here in the near future as all that remains of the little snow we had is in small patches on the grass! The temperature has now dropped so it should be interesting to see what happens - crazy weather! On the upside, spending less time at the ski hill has meant a little extra time spent in my craft space! :)

Take care and Happy Saturday!
Shanna :)

  7. Cute card Shanna!I like the colors and how you used the black to set them off.

    Sorry you didn't get to go skiing, I can't imagine having the temperatures you guys have way up north. It's so hot down here in the Southern US that it has made my blood thin and the extreme cold hurts! Stay warm and have a great Sunday!
