A Christmas Card

The weather is awful here today.. been so windy since yesterday night and now it's raining really hard as well. I wouldn't have minded it if I didn't have to go out tonight but it was my bestest friend's birthday this week and today we are all meeting up for dinner... so can't miss it definitely!

Anyway, I thought I would post this card today before I go to get ready. This is a card that I made for another special friend, but in blogland this time, and not wanting her to see it before she received it, I hadn't posted it .. but seeing this week's new challenge at Some Odd Girl, I thought it was the right time to do this!

The image, as you might have guessed, is from Some Odd Girl, coloured it with my promarkers... and it is one of those images that I am using for the first time!! I can't believe myself, and she is so cute.

These are some more stuff that I've had in my stash for quite some time and liking them so much, I never used them!! I added a little gem to their centre, a bow and peel offs to finish them off... I'm definitely going to use the rest of them, really loved them on the card :) 

So these are my challenges for my card.
Some Odd Girl - BLING IT UP
Bunny Zoe's Crafts 19 - FANCY FOLDS/SHAPED CARDS
Hotshot Craft 2 - EASEL CARDS

    Gorgeous card!! Love that image. And love how it's not square. I really must try this year to break the habit of always doing square cards.
