F4A397 challenge--Your Happy Place--Make a card that shows your happy spot.
Reason this is my happy spot.....I love making snowbanks--I love Christmas---I love falling snow.
We don't get a lot of snow in my area of the country.
Some years we only get a few snowflakes but when we do get a snow I think it makes almost everyone happy. The last good snow we got was 11" . Now, that was my happy spot. :-)
I made a template for my snowbanks and sponged. The moon was made by punching a circle with which I had placed frog tape over and then pulling the tape off and placing on my card for masking.
I used masking fluid to splatter on my card and letting dry before doing any sponging and stamping, then removing the masking fluid.

Lovely snowy scene - really pretty sponging. I love snow too if I have no where to be and can just enjoy it. We don't get much in the South East of England so don't have the right stuff to make it safe for people especially the elderly.

Oh, wow! Brenda, this is gorgeous, and I didn't realize you love snow so much...even though you don't get much. I love this scene, and the snowdrifts are amazing. And what fabulous trees...and great color in the sky! Stunning card with a beautiful sentiment!! I grew up in NJ, and we had snow every winter. I remember playing in it as a child and LOVING it. Great memories! Hugs, sweet friend!

I love the colors you chose for your winter scene, Brenda...the sky is gorgeous. This has such a peaceful, quiet feel...a very magical quality. The masking fluid made the bg perfect.
