The sponsor that we have this fortnight is I am Roses and they are giving the winner a $35 gift certificate to spend in their store.
I decided to make an easel card. The backing papers I have used are Bearly Mine Designs Christmas Light.
The image I have used is from a CD which I got free with a magazine last year. The gorgeous image by Margaret Sherry. I have printed the image out three time to decoupage up a bit and added some Stickles for some sparkle and shine. I took some scraps of brown card and embossed one with a dotty embossing folder and the other with a Sheena Douglas ivy embossing folder which came with the Crafter's Companion first Inspiration Magazine. I have finished the card off with some lace, brown ribbon bow (yes it is a dark brown and not a black as per photo but this is the best photo I could get with the flash reacting with the glittery Stickles!!!), sparkly snowflake peel-offs, sentiment off the computer, snowflake charm and gems.
I am entering this card into the following challenges:
