A Very Merry Christmas ....

Good afternoon crafters :)  in between visits to the hospital to see my lovely  mum i've  actually managed to make another card and i'd  like to share it with you :)
It's not a very good pic again sorry ... think I need some photography lessons...lol

 I used the beautiful LOTV image All Wrapped Up and coloured her using Copics & Polychromo pencils,  I then went round the whole image using a very pale blue pencil  blending  slightly with  Sansodor ... it's the first time I tried this and was a bit scared I'd ruin the image but I think it turned out ok :)

 The little bird house/bird are from Marianne Design (LR0203) Creatables ...I added a touch of red to the birds breast to make it look like a Robin...

 The flowers are from WOC .... christmas colour carnations, I sprayed them with Perfect Pearls Mist and sprinkled on some gold Glamour Dust  then added  a few berries and leaves from my McGill Pine punch.

I am entering my card into the following challenges .........
1) ... Lili's Little Fairies ~ Classic Christmas
2) ... Sparkles Christmas Challenge #21 ~ Traditional
3) .. Stamp and Create  .. October Challenge ~ Winter Wonderland

Thats about it ...off to link up before i miss the deadline on one ....Thanks for the visit today ..take care & stay warm :)

A handful of love.......

 Good afternoon crafters  hope you are well ?  Just  a quickie to share my latest make with you, I really enjoyed making this card  too but am not  happy with the pic as it doesn't  show how sparkly it  really is.

I used James Bear ~ In the Snow on my card...(available here)  and coloured him using Copics and Polychromos. I added Stickles ~ Icicle and Flower Soft ~ Polar White for the snow,  I also added Stickles to the  Memory Box branch die and Marianne Design fence and poinsettia. The large snowflake (unknown) and Memory Box snowflake corner die were sprinkled with Diamond Sparkles.

The sentiment is an old one from Cuddly Buddly

 And another pic

I am entering my card into the following challenges .....
1) ... Lili's Little Fairies ~ White with a hint of colour
2) ... Created with love challenges ~ Christmas
3) ...Stamp and Create ~ Winter Wonderland
4) ... Simon Says Stamp ~ Glimmer and Sparkle
Thank you for your visit today ... see ya all soon
