DEC11VSNMINI4 ~ Friday, Nov 11 ~ 8 pm EST ~ Let it Snow
Title: Let it Snow
Hostess: Anitamocha
Keyword: DEC11VSNMINI4
Day/Date: Friday, November 11th
Time: 8:00pm EST
When I think of winter, I think of snow. Since I am in CA, I don't get snow so I am challenging you to create your own snow.
My challenge is for you to make a card or project using Flower Soft, Flocking or something along those lines on your card or project.
Here is a
tutorial for making your own Flower Soft.
VIEW THE GALLERY FOR THIS CHALLENGE
HERE
UPLOADING INSTRUCTIONS:
1. ALL VSN CREATIONS MUST BE UPLOADED BY 10:00 PM EST ON Monday November 14.
2. You have 45 minutes to complete the challenge.
3. Please remember to put in the correct keyword, DEC11VSNMINI4 , when uploading your image. Copying and pasting the challenge keyword is recommended to avoid typos.

I have some Flower Soft but have not used it yet - this may be the perfect opportunity. Can't wait to get some time to stamp!

Fun challenge (and one I will probably skip since I own neither of them- I get along with them about as much as I get along with glitter= which isn't well
) However, I love seeing everyone else use it!!!

I'll add flower soft to my shopping list. I'll see if I've got something to substitute. The white FS would work very nicely with my challenge too

Last time, I made a flocked bear that looked like it had mange. I think I'll have to find me some white flower soft. My FS is spring colors... Hmmmm

I used Sparkly Fluff (Flock & Glitter) on the boot rims and hat tossles of this sample. Will that work?

I did snow two ways - with plain white cardstock and a reflection, and with Dazzling Details.
I <3 snow - great challenge.
Oh - I don't like it in real life. Lee can have it. But it sure is pretty to look at!
