Christmas at Polka Doodles

Woooo hooo!!!

I am officially starting my "Christmas Season" ;))). And what a better way than with this week's challenge at Polka Doodles - which is Something Christmassy and HAS to be a shaped card - NO squares or rectangles! ;)

And here is my first Christmas card this year ;).

For my card I've used the GORGEOUS kraft papers from Magical Winter 2 CD and the snow flakes were punched from Pretty Sweet CD soft pastel papers. The sentiment panel was cut using Nesties, embossed with snowflakes embossing folder and mounted on sticky pads to add dimension. Then I added a few sparklies with gems, acrylic paint "snow" and LOOOOOTS of glitter :). The edges were distressed with distress ink for a more vintage feel.

Make sure to check all the fabulous inspiration projects from the DT and have a fabulous Friday!!! Wooo hooo, it's almost the weekend!!!

Big hugs
