Better Late than Never ....


Ahhh ... this week started out rough and I didn't get my Challenge Card posted for our very FUN ABC Challenge this week - add some stitching - faux or real.  Anyone who knows me knows I couldn't mend a sock so stitching for real was probably not gonna happen here but faux is always fun too!   I usually get my challenge cards posted ahead of  time but I just totally missed getting this one posted and then when I did go to post - no camera!   I was in a FULL Panic ... let me tell ya.    Better now,  camera found and card shown.   This started out from MOJO Sketch #279 but I put the panels on "backward" so it's a bit of stretch ... but that's where the creativity comes in. 
My card theme - snow - was perfect timing though because this weekend we had over 5 inches of snow.   I'd rather have it on the weekend than during the week though.... I hope you'll come and stitch with us at ABC with us this week! 

Supplies:  CTMH Paper Aspen, CTMH Stamps D1480 Snowflakes, CTMH Ink Outdoor Denim, Twilight,  Misc Snowflakes,  CTMH Sparkles,  CB Snowflake EB Folder
