My gosh what a long week, so glad it is the weekend. Had a fabulous day yesterday at the NEC with one of my friends and thankfully didn't spend to much money. Saw the marvelous Barbara Gray and the Create & Craft team and chatted to the very lovelly Michael Powell, love his images and didn't realise they started out as cross stitches. Brought a couple of his stamps as I haven't managed to buy them from anywhere else.
Anyway on to this weeks
Less is More challenge, one layer with a houses theme, not scared of these anymore, infact more and more of my cards are now just one layer. The very talanted Jen has stepped up to help Chrissie while Mandi continues the set up of her new business venture. Look forward to seeing lots of her fab creations :)
Used some kraft card that I treated myself to yesterday, not really used this card before so am stepping into new territory. Used white ink to create a bit of a snow and used Clarity stamps to make the rest of the scene. Used a white gel pen and some diamond sticklers but can't really show the sparkle on the photo.
Hope everyone is having a great weekend :)

Love this gorgeous snowy scene.
I remember seeing Michael Powell's cross stitch kits years ago but never managed to buy any so was really pleased when he brought his images out as stamps.
