Havin' a Ball Snowman

This week's challenge at High Hopes is ..
Blue and Green and White or Cream
Play along with your High Hopes stamps to win a new one of your choice :)

While I was making this card I was half watching our Rory win the Golf Open :) so I must confess I wasn't entirely paying attention to what I was doing!

First off, I forgot the challenge colour theme and chose some DP with red in it.
Then when I went to die cut my notebook edge on the image panel I managed to cut it upside down.
That's OK, I thought, it kinda looks like wee snowballs, I'll use my snowball effect ribbon.  Did I use it? Nope! By the time I got to my ribbon box I'd forgotten my plan and used some of this hairy stuff instead!  Doh!

My image is Havin' a Ball Snowman - coloured with pencils and some diamond stickles added for a bit of sparkle; also some black stickles on his nose.

'Twas a good win by Rory wasn't it, I was watching with bated breath on those last few holes hoping that he didn't drop any shots!!!
Love you card and it doesn't matter that the border is at the top instead of the bottom :o)
