Do You Want To Build A Snowman

Hey guys, I'd love to be building a snowman but the snow hasn't found us here in Hull....yet! Forecast a wee bit for tomorrow so we'll just have to wait and see.

It's time for another fun challenge over at
This challenge is all about Movie Inspiration.  We'd love if you could show us something that was inspired by a movie.
We have 3 wonderful sponsors for this challenge and they are
Ike has a fabulous $20 shop voucher for the winner
Our next sponsor is 
who's prize is 4 images
and last but not least

I chose to use one of Sami's Stamps - It's called My Snowy Friend.  Hubby bought me the movie Frozen for Christmas and there is a song in it called Do You Want To Build A Snowman.  I thought this image fitted perfectly for this challenge.  Good luck to everyone who enters!

Something Old - SOMETHING NEW

Morning everyone from a windswept and wild Hull.  It's still dry here but it's been cold and blustery this morning, pity I had to get up for work or I'd have stayed under the Duvet! 
  
It's time for a new Challenge today over at 
This challenge is to celebrate something new, either a new house, new baby, new job etc.  The challenge is sponsored by our very own 
who is offering 3 digis of your choice as a prize.

I chose to work with Baby Chicks from Angie for my card - very appropriate for a New Baby.
