The Wired Angel: Sassy Cheryl's Challenge Time!

Hi everyone.. I have the cutest Sassy Cheryl image to show you today. Our challenge hostess, Tracy, has called for distressing this week... and that's always a nice change from clean and simple cards, don't you think?

I LOVE snowmen with personality and this little guy fits the bill. He's perfect for a distressed, vintage look with that top hat he's sporting. And I had just the miniatures to go with this image.... borrowed from my miniature general store. Those are tiny Christmas packages on the rocker... just not the best photo to display them.

Starting with a card base of Neenah solar white paper, I antiqued the card, designer papers and image with Tim Holtz' Tea Dye. My snowman friend was colored with Prismacolor pencils.. my fav!

This week the Design Team at Sassy Cheryl's challenge will be picking their top three favorites entries. The lucky three will get this special blinkie for their blog. So join us for a fun week.

'Til next time, happy coloring.. have fun.. and be safe in all you do.
Ciao for now!
