I did a second card for the challenge, not sure which one I like the best....

 I changed it up a bit.....tried to show more lake, less grass, and a little more snow..changed the verse...added a few birds...

Thanks for looking...Blessings & Hugs






This is my take on the Challenge Titled:

"First Snow"

 

First I sponged the sky on Express it paper with a torn paper towel, and SU bashful blue ink:

I Used two sets for the scenery, Keep climbing, & Fathers Day, the sentiment is from the add on set to Keep Climbing - called Mountains.

Then  I stamped the mountains once, then slid it over and used my stamp a  ma jig, to position and stamped a little more mountains in SU Not Quite Navy, then I stamped the Moose, coloured and cut it out,and then popped it up with foam tape, and placed on a few leaves...I tried to make it blend in to look like a lake in the BG.  I don't have my green flower soft yet, so tried to use green felt, and flowery flower soft to make like the edge of the lake, and still a few flowers left before the snow covered them....its so sad...we already have snow at our place, and my flowers are all gone...

This card went to a fellow who is battling cancer: And the friend who gave it to him, thought the verse was very fitting!!

The verse is the first one:

ODBD Stamp sets used:  Keep Climbing, Father's Day, Mountain
