Graphicus party freebie!!

Yesterday the open day at Graphicus had to be cancelled due to the weather so Glenda and Adrian organised an online party with games and some fab bargains instead. The party started with  beautiful freebie snowflake backing papers (pop over to the Graphicus blog and check it out!) which I've used to make this quick and easy card

I've matted the bp on some purple/mauve pearl card and added some gorgeous ribbon from my stash. The topper is made by embossing an Elusive Images Christmas tree on white card with clear EP and then swirling some purple and green inks over the top with a shaving brush. (I used Mountain Meadow and Waterfall Big & Juicy ink pads). To finish the card off I added a little bow in the same ribbon..

 I missed most of the party as our internet went down so I was over the moon this morning to find I'd been picked as one of the lucky winners! I did manage to get my craftroom tidied up though, one corner was piled high with 'alterables' I'd salvaged from here and there over the last couple of years. I braved the pile of 'junk' and got it all organised, so I'll be able to make a start on some projects if the snow hangs around and I can't get to work next week.

Thanks for visiting today, hope you are keeping warm and cosy. Its not quite as cold here today but no sign of the snow going anywhere in a hurry
