Good morning folks, sorry I haven't been around much this week, its been busy at work getting organised as I've got next week off (and I can't wait!!).Today's card is for our 'Add some Twinkle' challenge at Polkadoodles, as always there is a fab prize up for grabs and lots of inspiration from my talented teamies too so pop over and have a look if you've got time. I've made a shaker card using a bp and one of the gorgeous images from the new Polkadoodles Festive Hollybobs collection
I coloured the image with my Graph'It markers, drawing in some hills in the background and adding some glamour dust for some twinkly frost. I cut a frame from white card and lined it with acetate and layered it up with 3d foam after adding my 'snow' (a mixture of glamour dust, glass glitter, and various other frosty looking bits and bobs from my stash). I popped this on one of the lovely backing papers from the CD and added die cut icicles and snowflake borders that I'd brushed with glue and sprinkled with glamour dust. Its really sparkly in real life so sorry about the dodgy photo.
I'm entering this in the following challenges:
Charisma Cardz: anything goes
Crafting by Design: die cuts
Dies R Us: Christmas in July
Digi Choosday: punches/die cuts
Holly Jolly: Christmas critters
Penny's Paper Crafty: anything goes
