Hi Girls
Well I'm really getting going at the Christmas cards now.... This card uses a Lily of the Valley image - Skating Along
What a lovely image to colour - I used my trusty Copics of course..... then gave the shadow with my cool gray pens. I rounded the edges with a corner rounder - then matted and layered onto DP with a base of Bazzil dotty (can you tell I love that dotty card?)
I used my floral poinsettia punch for decoration with a bit of red glitter glue in the centre, then finished the whole image with glamour dust! Yessssssssssss I could put glitter everywhere .... the image just cried out for it!
Well hope you like - I'll be adding more later tonight - or maybe tomorrow. I've been concentrating on getting them done rather than blogging them - well that, and trying to make curtains for my lounge.... oh and getting a man in to clean the stain off my carpet left after my daughter threw (accidentally) her pudding (complete with double cream) ov
er it last Sunday! The carpet is only two months old........ (sniff...)
Anyway, bye for now - hugs to all and I look forward to your comments as always.

Oh no! Why do children always spill things on new carpets? I have a smear of black hair-dye hidden by a rug on the upstairs landing...

It's a smashing card, I think you can't have too much sparkle on a Christmas card. I love LotV, you've coloured this one a treat!
