Cor that Huggies tub is cool!!

Don't flipping change your challenge cos I've finally got a card done! It's a thanks card for my friend that looked after the house and pets while we were on holiday in Lapland. I wrote thanks in the snow out there, and on the actual card you can see the mountain in the background that we were snowboarding down all week

What a great idea Savvy!!! And so well thought out, remembering to do the photo while you were away, sort of like a postcard of where you have been and a thank you card all in one..

Loving your card Savvy, good idea to think in advance like that. We did a similar idea on the sand in Cyprus. Very useful things sand & snow!

Don't forget you lot, Polly has got until Sunday to do her card so lay off the pressure!:D I believe mine was on here at 5.45pm last Sunday!:D

PS. I WANT to buy all those pretty ribbons in that Huggies box so maybe its not so MSE after all! :rotfl:

Hi everyone - I went wild and made TWO cards. I took a couple of close ups too. They're mostly mixed media, poster paint, fabric, outliner, card and print (aka: 'everything but the kitchen sink').

Just had a gander at the other thank you cards:
Savvy: beautiful card and original idea. Good idea, thinking well in advance and taking shots for your xmas cards too.
Mumoftwo: such an intricate design, thanks for sharing how to do it. I think it would work lovely with fabric too...although it might be a bit fiddley! I think polka dot paper finishes it nicely. Can't wait to see everyone elses now.....
