Merry Christmas in a shadow box

Hi there!!! Check out the fresh snow... LOL!!! We actually got some fresh snow in my neck of the woods today. Considering it snowed all night long, it really is a pathetic amount. Enough to be annoying but not enough to actually have fun in it.  

This week's challenge at Stamping Bella was "Anything Goes". I love getting crafty and making presents at Christmas so I decided to make a fun shadow box frame. One of my fave places in Nanaimo called Salvage recently had a class doing something very similar to this and I loved the idea so I customized it to what I wanted it to be.  I added some "snow", some of the bottle brush trees and a cute red sleigh that I found at Michaels.  I stamped the sentiment called "Merry Christmas and a Happy new year" with some Brilliance white ink (sorry I don't know the exact name of it) onto black cardstock.  (Ignore my shadow in the frame, I tried for days to get a good pic and no matter what it was either my reflection or the camera). 

I'm sure you're wondering what the next challenge will be and it's a fun one!!! And you have plenty time to get busy and get creative.
