A comfy nook for art, craft and seeking simplicity.
I made the snowflake background paper for the lowest layer using Craft Artist and colour matched them to the colours for the Crafy Chick challenge.
The other papers.,tag and robin were all freebies with a magazine. I used a light green gem brad to attch the tag to the card.

I used an LOTV die cut and sentiment. This is the ultimate warm and cosy picture!!
I made the snowflake embellishment by punching two snowflakes on matching papers. I decorated it with glitter glue and added the gems.
I cut and offset the circles abd I embossed the top one with a swirl pattern and highlighted it with red distress ink.
The LOTV sentiment is ‘warmest thoughts and best wishes’. I used a MS punch on the horizontal paper.

The ribbon is a beautiful brown and beige.
Not a colour combination I use mch but I like it for this card!

I used lavender and brick red distress inks on the edge of the LOTV die cut. I used textured paper and used the two distress inks on them. I ripped the edges of the smaller paper.
I couldn’t get a very good photo of the flowers I put together. They are made of two layers of petals which I highlighted with the distress inks and then pink glitter glue. I put them together with glossy accents and added a pearl embellishment to the middle.

The card layout is based on one I saw on Create and Craft TV- I’m afraid I can’t remember who was making it to give them credit!!
The backing paper is lilac with some sky blue and isn’t showing up too well here but it is lush! It is from Snowman papers. The sky blue and lilac card is from stash. The lilac ribbons were cut out of clothes and saved! The sky blue butterfly embellishment is from stash.
This is another great LOTV die cut. Once again I have added some colours to get a better match to the card I decided to add grass, leaves and some more lilac on the flowers. I also added the sky blue ribbon to the hat to match the card.
