Crafts Galore Encore November 2015 Challenge

It's now the first of November and time for a new challenge on the Crafts Galore Encore Challenge Blog. Thank you to everyone who joined in last month's challenge. The winners are on the challenge blog 'winner's page'. This is a month long challenge and you can enter up to three times. A full list of rules are on the challenge blog.
Our theme this month is
"Use a Stamp or Digi Image"
somewhere on your project.
This month we are being sponsored by
Art By Miran
Our design team were given a choice of some of Miran's lovely images to work with. This is the card I made with my choice.

I used Kraft card for the matting layers on an 8"x 8" card base. The papers are from LOTV's Frosty Christmas art pad. I tucked a doily and a strip of lace in between a couple of layers and added lots of snowflake die-cuts that I'd sprinkled with Shabby Blue Frantage.

The image from Art by Miran that I chose is called Suzie Snowflakes. I used Copics to colour her.

The tree die-cuts are from Sue Wilson's Winter Tree Festive Collection and were cut from plain white card then dipped in white embossing powder to give them an enameled look.

I finished the card by sprinkling plenty of Frantage around, adding some blue gems and a seam binding bow.
Now please visit the Crafts Galore Encore challenge blog to see the fabulous cards from my wonderfully talented team mates. We look forward to seeing your projects this November using a stamped or digi image. And, if you fancy joining our lovely team you are in luck....

We also have a DT CALL for a number of places on our DT to begin with the first challenge of 2016 on January 1st!
To join our DT please add DT to your entry for this challenge. If you have tried before please try again, our requirements are:-

1. You need to have a blog and also a Facebook account (we run the group from a private FB group)
2. You will be required to produce one project each month. The themes aren't difficult and usually the sponsor will provide you with a digi image to work with (usually you get a choice as to which image you choose!) The project will need to be ready by the 28th of each month.
3. You will need to comment on challenge entries.
4. Every other month you will be asked to pick your choice of a winner and write a sentence or two about why you picked it (please click on the winners tab above if you want to see what is needed !)
5. You need to enjoy colouring as we work with digi stamps (we chose to do this so that we could work with people worldwide!)
We are a friendly group and as flexible as we can be (understanding that life gets in the way of craft !)
