Mimo ski - The Stamp Basket DT

I'm a bit late with my post today because I've been struggling with a bad headache all day... I have my suspicions that it's actually caused by a problem with one of my teeth, but as I'm extremely phobic of the dentist (haven't been to one for years) I'm in denial!  I managed to get my card onto The Stamp Basket blog earlier, but I had to take a break from the laptop after that.  Anyway, here's my card...




The following items are all available from The Stamp Basket


I've coloured Mimo with promarkers, flexmarkers and koh-i-noor pencils, although it was a bit of a bad colouring day so I'm not very impressed with how it turned out!  The snowflake is a wooden one, that I've embossed with several layers of gold embossing powder.

I'm entering my card for the following challenges:
I'll probably be a bit slow catching up with all your blogs tonight, but I'll get round as many of you as I can... fingers crossed I'll wake up miraculously recovered and won't have to find a dreaded emergency dentist!

    Lovely card.. With fab image and colouring.

    So sorry about your headache... And agree it can be linked to a tooth prob. I never seem to be away from the dentist at the mo.. Got to have two crowns... And got so nervous last time I was there that he had to let me go to the loo half way through the treatment!
    Hugs

    Sorry to hear you suffered all day with it! I'm not keen on dentists either but it sounds like your gonna have to be brave this time :) Best check out your suspicions or it might get worse :(

    Gorgeous card Lisa, not seen that stamp before. Go to the dentist and I talk from experience. Not went for years and have just finished after 10months of treatment including 2 crowns and 3 route canals. I didnt think I had any major problems, maybe a filling or two. Honestly I coulda taken out a mortgage to pay for it. Now I swear to go every 6months, and yes I'm still petrified!!

    Well I think this is adorable, I really like the traditional Christmassy colours and I honestly think your colouring looks great. Love the snowflake, it looks really vintage.

    I hope your headache gets better and please get your tooth checked out! I don't like going to the dentist either but I'd hate for you to get ill with your tooth, it's not nice at all (speaking from experience).
