A Magical Snowy Monday!!

Good Monday morning all!
It's another Magical Monday on my blog and a snowy one today here too! Nina has this super cute digi image "Sweet Trouble" over at 'There's Magic in the Air' and it's FREE! The image is inspired by 'Malie' - our DT member Kim's sweet pooch. So, Kim is hosting this weeks challenge and it is to create a 'Clean and simple card' with limitations on what you can use (eg. NO brads, bows or anything that would make it challenging to mail). There is also a requirement that PINK appear somewhere on the card.
I coloured my image with copics and used ivory flower soft as the fur trim on the hat. Winter white flower soft which is glittery was used as snow (a bit difficult to see in the pic). I punched out snowflakes on brown cardstock with my MS punch and also the nesties Snowflake 1 die set. I framed the image with this pink Bazzill cardstock and a sheet of BG Eskimo Kisses behind. I have to say I rather enjoyed the 'limited' challenge on this card - I really had to work hard though at not wanting to add 'more'!!!
Well, thanks for stopping by today. I sure hope your Monday is a magical one and don't forget to get ready to blog hop with us on Wednesday!!! Thanks again for all your beautiful and inspiring comments - they truly mean the world to me!
Hugs,
Danielle x
