Crafty Sentiments

Hi everyone, it's Thursday so time for another challenge at Crafty Sentiments. This week our challenge is to make a male card... I don't really like doing these cards, can't put much stuff on their cards, but we can't avoid them, can we and me especially, having three men in my life! 


So I did another Christmas card today... using another of these adorable Crafty Sentiments snowmen, which I coloured with my promarkers. Today I did something different and cut off two panels on my card and stuck some vellum paper from behind, which I had previously embossed. 
I followed this sketch ..
and added lots of snow, glitter and sparkle ...

Hope you like it and come and join us this week. We are sponsored this week by Di's Digital Downloads.

    It's very pretty Dora and I love all the sparkle - you can NEVER have too much sparkle on a Christmas card, can you?
