Starry Night

Hi everyone -
Thankfully, the snow is gone -- three feet.  Well, we did not receive three feet, only 32 inches!  We stuck a yard stick in the snow on our deck.  At first we enjoyed seeing the yard stick disappear ... then, not so much.

The first few days after the blizzard, the snow was absolutely beautiful.  So pristine white and pretty.  Then, of course, the roads cleared and the sand and dirt turned the lovely white snow to piles of ugly brown yuck!

So, I guess I still have snow on my mind and came up with this card.  A picture of silver trees in a frame with a little paperclip at the top.  Confetti stars for a starry night.



Card materials:
Martha Stewart All Over the Page Stars
Stampin Up "Lovely as a Tree" stamp
We R Memory Keepers Albums Made Easy
Ink It Up! Silver ink


I'll be posting this card to two challenges:

Tic-Tac-Toe Challenge #3   I chose the middle row: polaroid, paperclip and confetti.  An interesting challenge - really makes one think outside the box.



and

Scrapy Land Challenge #35  Anything Goes with a Die


Have a great weekend!

  2. Very pretty silver trees! It sure does look like when the snow first covers the trees, isn't that always so beautiful? I love when it first snows, but once the snow starts to get dirty I want it gone! Love your card. Thanks for playing along with us at Scrapy Land Challenges!

  5. This is so beautiful! I love how the simplicity of the color scheme really enhances the beauty of the scene you've created. And it was so fun to see someone choose to use these three elements for this week's Tic-Tac-Toe Challenge. Thanks so much for playing along!

  6. This is beautiful. I love the color scheme and how you angled the tree images. I don't think I would like that much snow at once though. Last year we had a lot but this year we have been lucky!! Thanks for playing with Stamping Smiles Design Tic-Tac-Toe Challenge!
