My card today was very heavily influenced by Kristina Werner's card here.
The challenge on one layer wednesday this week is to create a scene. (I'm guessing Karen doesn't intend for us to go & have a tantrum in the nearest restaurant). I used the modern landscape die to create a mask, having first printed out my digital images. The trees & house were a bit lost to start with, so I outlined the house with thin black marker, to create a visual triangle with the sled & the snowman. BIG mistake. Now the house was all my eye could focus on. I have managed to soften it a little, with repeated applications of white gel pen, but I'm still not entirely happy. What I do like however, is the 'snow' effect achieved by sponging on hammered card. This was completely accidental.
The Tiny Treasures set also includes a penguin, so I might have another go with that & an igloo.
