Especially for You!

October 11th 2012


I've made this cute little "sparkly" Xmas card for 2 challenges - firstly Rick St Dennis has a new Challenge Blog and as I had just bought this Euro Clown Troupe image from his Etsy Store I decided to make a card for the challenge following their theme of "Anything Goes with Sparkle & Glitter" combined with the new sketch from the Christmas Cards (with Sketches) Challenge Blog. The card & patterned papers are all metallic sheen finish to add to the sparkle and I added some glittery Stickles in gold & clear for more shimmer!!

    Love your card, it's so cool with the mix of traditional colours and the not so traditional family picture ;)
