Home Sweet Home - Belles 'n Whistles

It's been so long since I played with my Belles 'n Whistles Stamps.
I finally had some times this weekend to color in this gorgeous image, definitely a favorite stamp of mine!

I tried to create a room scene with this cutie looking out the window.
She's enjoying the beautiful snow on the tree and ground.
I've used liquid applique, flower soft, and diamond dust for the snow.
The tree is made with a Martha Stewart leaf punch.

There are so many great challenges out there, but I'm entering this card to four listed below.
