Christmas Shopping Pheobe

Hi girls, Happy Sunday, hope you are having a lovely weekend. For a change, it's a lovely sunny day here  in Malta today and so we are off for a picnic .. but before  I go today I have my DT Card for this week's challenge at One Stitch At A Time and the theme is .... an easy one again .... USE YOUR FAVE COLOURS!  Looks like mine is blue, 'cos I used blue for my card today. 

For my card I used this beautiful Christmas Shopping Phoebe stamp from Lexi's Designs and some lovely freebie papers from Martine at the Craft Table. The sentiment was also a freebie in some magazine.. had it for quite some time, so don't remember which one. I thought it was just perfect for my card!
I coloured Phoebe with my promarkers, did lots of paper piercing with my sewing machine all around the papers...
and today I made my own flower as well. Some water on the punched flowers, squeezing and drying and some glitter as well. Hope you like. 

I am entering my card in these challenges today..
