Saturday already, at least I think it is, I still haven't got my head back into normal week mode yet. I managed to put the bins out a day later than they are usually collected, but a day earlier than they were actually being collected! At least I didn't miss collection day I suppose.
Having established that it's actually Saturday (although it's actually Friday evening as I type this scheduled post - have I confused you yet?), it's time for our next challenge at Sweet Stampin'

This week our theme is Winter White - so we want to see your predominantly white creations.
I started off by applying Cosmic Shimmer Sparkle paste through a SSS Falling star stencil to the front of a 6x6 card base and letting it dry. I stamped the sentiment, bear, jumper and presents from the freebie Hunkydory stamp set that came with Creative Stamping magazine recently. I fussy cut them all, apart from the sentiment which I cut out with a SSS Stitched Rectangle die. I coloured in his paws with a zig marker and the stars on his jumper with a signo silver sparkle pen. I added a white circular frame to my card cut from tattered lace pearl circles and essential circles dies. I assembled the card using 1mm foam tape and added some diamond stickles to the ribbons on the presents. To finish, I couldn't resist a little faux stitching around the edge of the card.
I can't wait to see your makes this week, just remember that you need to include some stamping to be eligible for our top three.
Morning Cara, hope you are having a great day, just love this card. So cute and the layers work very well.
