A Winter Friend

Hi All!
This week's challenge at Mo's Digital Pencil is "Winter".
I thought I'd cover a cheapy chipboard notebook I bought at a discount shop.
I'm not sure what I'll use it for, knowing me I'll probably look at it for a couple of months and give it away. :-)
My layout is just a free- form kind of patchwork. Pretty simple. Not much explaining to do here. 


Recipe:
Image: Mo Manning
Colors: Lyras and Prismacolors
Ribbon: form stash
Web Ribbon: Sew Sweet
metal flower: gift
button sticker: K&Co. (I think)
Adhesive Pearls: Recollections


Challenges:
Everybody-Art-Challenge -  Little Present
Daisy Doodles Creative Challenge - Anything goes with a Digi 
Karens Doodles - Anything BUT a Card
Make it Monday - always Anything Goes
Pollycraft - Friends/Friendship
There She Goes - Recipe: A Snowflake AND a Bird  and at Least 1 (one) Kind of Ribbon or a Button.
Whoopsi Daisy   The Colours of Winter
Dream Valley Challenges - Stitching 
Scrappy Frogs - 3W - (2nd week) Use Kraft Card Stock (ends 5th Dec)
2 Sisters - Anything Goes

Have a great weekend everyone!
