Winter Challenge Card and Winner Announcement

Hey everyone and Happy Monday.  I'm back today to share a cute winter card as I'm participating in the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge and the MFT Sketch Challenge.  I decided to make a spinner card since I needed to make an interactive card for a friend of mine to give away to a sweet little girl.

I will tell you, I was CHALLENGED big time with this one.  It's simple process but I have been battled a cold, my mind was in a fog and I could not get my little bear to spin on the track. I reached out to my interactive genius friend Ilda from I Love Doing All Things Crafty.  She is like my superhero of interactive cards to figure out what I was doing wrong.  I even Periscoped with my favorite peeps to try to get this card done.  FINALLY I had to walk away and when I came back with a clear head I could finish it off and I LOVE it.

I used the bear from the Ski-sons Greetings from MFT and colored him with Copic markers.  To create the downhill slop for him to ride down I used the Surf and Turf die-namics.  For my background I used some distress inks in the colors of chipped sapphire, broken china and wilted violet.  I used the stitched hillside border dies from Lawn Fawn to make my snow drifts.  The sentiment, snowflakes and trees are from various Lawn Fawn stamp sets. I stamped the "I move" sentiment on the bear so the recipient knows that the bear moves.  That sentiment is from the Heffy Doodle Interactively Yours stamp set.  I sprinkled the card with a few pink, purple and blue gems.

UPDATE:  This card was "spotted" on the My Favorite Things blog!!  Woot woot!!  Thanks so much MFT for your sweet showcase!

Now for our winner announcement.  The winner of the Lawn Fawn stamp sets is:
