DEC13VSNA, DEC13VSNH, DEC13VSNI - VALERIE'S SNOW DAY

Hey there, these are my last VSN challenge projects for the day unless I can finish the one that's sitting on my desk (no pressure!).  This one post contains three of the challenges.  I recently purchased the Valerie digi set from Mo's Digital Pencil and I couldn't wait to color them!  Waaayyyy too sweet!  To conserve time, I used the same Copic markers and pattern paper on all three cards...I just changed up the layout.  Love this color combo for Christmas!

This first one is for Alison's (newstampinaddict) It's a Snow Fight challenge.  We were to incorporate a snowball or even a snowball fight into our projects.  The image is Valerie with Snowball...she was sized then printed and colored with Copic markers.

This second card is for Lee's (LuvLee) challenge, Snow Falling in Color.  The challenge was to create snow in any form (stamped, Flower Soft, Stickles, Liquid Applique, etc.), but make it in color...not white!  The image, Valerie with Snowman, includes Copic colored snow.  Just in case that wasn't enough, a die cut snowflake was added after it was colored with Copic markers.  A Sparklet that was colored with V95 completes the card.

This last card is for Kim's (StampingSpud) Staying Warm challenge.  She wanted us to incorporate something we do to stay warm.  The image is Valerie with Pup and it's perfect...when I'm cold, I bundle up!  Isn't that pup buried in the snow a riot!?!
