Winter Blues - CAS Style

Well I was hoping to get to make and post this card this afternoon and I did.  YAY!
This one is for two challenges, which is always nice when that happens.   The first challenge is ATCAS #1  (Addicted To CAS)  which is brand new challenge that began this week and looks to be a great challenge site. This week their code word is "snow".  This card is also for the CAS-ual Fridays Challenge #79   which is Winter Blues.        Two CAS challenges - my favorite style.   

I made the background paper using Alcohol Inks: Stream, Pool and Snow Cap White, then I embossed it with Cuttlebug Heart folder.  The snowflake is punched from a SU punch and glittered. The center portion is from a small Recollections punch I've had for a while.  I added a little pearl in the center, just because it seemed like a good thing to do.   The adorable penguin is from a Gina K Designs set titled, Ready, Set, Snow.  I colored him with Copics and fussy cut him out.  The sentiment is from that same set.    I wish you all a good Saturday evening and thank you all for taking a minute to stop by.  Hope to see you all again tomorrow.
