This time our challenge is:
The first time I went ice skating I imagined myself sailing round in beautiful skates like these. ( Noel Steatfield was somewhat to blame - 'White Boots' ). Not only was I given ugly brown skates but they gave me horrendous blisters. I never took to ice skating.
Maybe you have a better experience. We look forward to seeing your winter sport cards over the next two weeks.
Thanks for visiting. Enjoy Your Day.

ReplyDeleteGreat take on the challenge and still keeping it Christmassy, I love the subtle glitter on the greenery, gives it a real wintery feel. Films have a great way of making ice skating look all romantic at Christmas but in reality - its so not lol x
Adorable, j'aime ces patins vintage et cette ambiance hivernale, biz
ReplyDeleteLovely card.....I can't even stand up on skates..let alone skate!
ReplyDeleteI love the look you've achieved with your card Alison. It has a traditional look with the skates and then your beautiful background gives it a very modern feel - great work! Hugs, Gill xx
ReplyDeleteOnly ever been ice skating once. Once was a time too many. Having negotiated around the edge of the rink copiously holding onto the side edge I was persuaded to go it alone and skate off on my own across the rink. Only trouble was I hadn't a clue how to stop and just yelled get out of the way to anyone in my path until I met my friend coming from the other direction doing the same thing. We collided in a heap of arms and legs and skate blades within inches of our noses. Yep I remember it well . Thanks for the memory with your delightful card. Hugs Mrs A.
ReplyDeleteOh, I loved White Boots too - but equally my ice skating experience never lived up to expectations. Your card is completely beautiful!
ReplyDeleteA lovely card Alison and perfect for the challenge. Barbxx
