snowflakes galore

Morning girls
That's us another weekend nearer to Christmas.  I'm hoping to get the last of my shopping in and the tree up over the next couple of days then hopefully relax a bit till I need to start on the cooking.  That's the bit I hate the most, I absolutely hate all the prep for any meal never mind all that needs doing for Christmas!!

Today's creation is for the new challenge which goes live now on Polka Doodles.  
Are you ready for this?
PAPER PIECING AND USE SOME NEWSPAPER ON YOUR CREATIONS
omg I nearly had a heart attack when I seen this one but once I got me head around the newspaper bit with a light bulb moment to paper piece the actual newspaper it was easy peasy!!

       

As you can see I kept away from the cards and made a little wall hanging for a change.


This little cutie is from the Gingerbread Twist CD  and the papers are from the Pen & Paper kit 1
Coloured with copics and newspaper to paper piece part of her outfit. I then cut some snowflakes and hung them from the bottom with a few beads for added decoration

other ingredients:
snowflake punch
mistletoe - Magnolia Doohickey
large snowflakes - cricut Joys of the Season cart
charm - Hooked on Crafts
seed beads, fibres, beads and ribbon from stash
sentiment was pc generated.

So my question is this.  Are you game for a bit of newpapers crafting girls?
If so then play along as I'm really interested to see what ideas you all come up with for this one:)
Have a smashing weekend
