Good Morning...
Today's card is my DT inspiration for The Sugar Bowl.
The new challenge at
is Anything Goes (with a Sugar Nellie Image).
The prize for the lucky winner is four Sugar Nellie Digital Images, and there is a second prize winner of two Sugar Nellie Digital Images from
I have been a tad shaken by the number of Christmas cards some of my lovely bloggin' friends are creating and as there are only 147 days to go I thought I had better make a start.
I decided to make my card with the gorgeous Sugar Nellie Digi - Wish Upon A Star.
I coloured her with Copics and used some pearlescent card to create layers.
I used some twine, a button and some rusty bells (love those! they are from Live and Love Crafts).
Finally, I added some sentiments from Lili of The Valley and a dusting of Frantage.
Here we are then, - it's the most wonderful time of the year... (I do mean that you know)!

Ha ha, well that's one more Christmas card than I have made! It's an absolute beauty though and your elegant design shows off the delightful image so perfectly. The soft pastels are just so pretty...I like the non-traditional colours for Christmas cards :-)
