Need a Snow Cat?

     Hmmmm, I think there may different interpretations of "snow cat."  My dear SIL thinks a snowcat is a plow for removing huge drifts of snow or some big transport machine used in Antarctica.  Too much work for me!  Here's my interpretation --


I used the sketch from Sweet Sketch Weds. 2
turned a quarter turn to better fit the shape of my image piece.


     The image is from Rick St. Dennis and I colored it with ProMarkers.  I added sparkle to the snow and the snowflake embellies with a bit of Stickles glitter but it just doesn't show in the photo.  The CS is Recollections and the polka dot dp is from Paper Studio.  The lace has been hoarded in my stash since last spring for fear I'd use it all up.  I only have another 2 yards!  lol

Great card Connie and I can see why you've been hoarding that lace. It is beautiful. Love the image and your coloring is terrific. I have to admit I like both kinds of Snow Cats. I have fun moving snow on my snow cat and I adore your kind also. LOL Have a good day.

I think a snow cat is a big piece of machinery to move snow. My granddad drove Cats. A great card. We really appreciate that you are posting art with us in this two week challenge, at Word Art Wednesday. Blessings to you and yours, Carole
