Snowflakes

Hello and Happy New Year!  I am back with the first CWC challenge from My Paper Crafting.  We have a very special challenge to begin the new year.


We are all still so saddened by the tragedy at Sandy Hook Elementary School.  So we are making snowflake projects to help lift up those who survived this horrific event.  The teachers had ask that people make snowflakes and send them to decorate the school to help cheer bring some joy to the children who return to school after the holidays.  The response was overwhelming.  We are making project to send to the school board to let those who work there know that we continue to keep them in our thoughts and prayers.  Here is the address. 

Newtown Board of Education
3 Primrose Street
Newtown CT 46074

I made a card to end to the school board using the Winter Lace and Joys of the Season cartridges.


I used Winter Lace to cut the large snowflakes and Joys of the Season to cut the smaller snowflake centers.  I used a cuttlebug folder to emboss the corners of the card and a little white ink was used on the embossing. 



 The sentiment is a stamp from Robins's Creative  Nest.  I just thought this would be so appropriate for the card.  the little gem snowflakes and snowman were purchased at Hobby Lobby.

Come and join us in our first challenge of the year and make My Paper Crafting a part of your creative world.  There is always something new and exciting to see there.  Thanks for dropping by.  I hope you will visit often.
