First Christmas Card

I know - I'm leaving it a bit late to just start making Christmas cards - but you have to start somewhere! Anyhow, I did make a couple at the SU workshops, so its just the first one I made at home! I wanted to use the sketch on the Pink Ink challenge and I've managed to combine it with this weeks LOTV challenge- 'Bright and Sparkly.'  I used paper from last year - not sure what its called, but its by Bo Bunny.  I bought the stamp from LOTV last year and its been coloured with Promarkers.  The snowflakes are die cut - I think its a Marianne die and then they were covered with Stickles (Star Dust).  I added lots of polar white Flower Soft and ultra fine glitter for the snow, although you don't get the full effect in the photo!  I also had a bit of a snow storm in the craft room as I 'lost' the lid for the Flower Soft, and managed to spill it all over the rug!  Oh, you should see the mess!
