Well the good news is we didn't get as much snow as last weekend - the bad news is we got a lot of snow!!! Seriously we have more snow now then we did at Christmas!! So it was fitting the my friend Janet's Corrosive Challenge #5 today was a Christmas/ winter card with an animal.
For this card I used Jen's SKFYTT - I look forward to them every week!!The image is from Elzybells called Sleeping Reindeer; when I first saw this challenge from Janet I figured easy I have TONS of animal winter stamps - um NO I have tons of Snowmen & I don't think they count as animals!! This really was about the only one with a legit animal in it; I was thinking I would be using a snowman with a wee little bird until I came across this!!
I coloured the image with Lyras & Prismacolor using mineral spirits, still trying to get the hang of it; but I do find I really enjoy colouring with them.
I added candy cane Stickles for the balls on the tree & silver stickles for the garland. On his noise and the star I used Crystal effects to give it some shine.
The CB is white cs from Papertrey and the DS paper is from Scenic Route called Garland. I layered it and the image on SU's Riding Hood Red. To finish off the image I added a Ghost Snowflake with a 5mm red Bella Bonbon

Dana, First of all, I love your title! We also woke up to snow today (in Missouri), although, not nearly as much as I thought we'd have when I turned in at midnight! Now, your card... this is so cute! I love the snoozing reindeer! Your embellishements are adorable too. Thanks for sharing!
Awesome card my friend! Funny...I just finished my card for Janet's challenge and I used the same sketch. We must be on the same BFF brainwaves! :)
