Crafty Catz Challenge # 560 Optional twist- Christmas in July


 Good morning, hope you've all had a good week and are safe and well. It's my youngest granddaughter's 2nd birthday today, hard to believe she's 2 already, I seem to have missed so much of her babyhood because of all the restrictions and she's changed from a baby to a bright and beautiful little girl, a real chatterbox with a mind of her own (!!) not at all shy! Happy Birthday little Charlotte. 

On to the card- this week's challenge at Crafty Catz, hosted by our lovely Ginny, has the (optional) theme of CHRISTMAS IN JULY

Our sponsor for this week is 

Heather Valentin - Colour of Love 





PRIZE...3 IMAGES FROM SHOP
http://lacysunshine.weebly.com/

The image I have used is Christmas Star, coloured with Copics, glitter markers and a white gel pen, touches of glitter added to the snow. The papers are from Polkadoodle, I've added some die cuts and 3 tiny buttons.

As always there's plenty to see over at Crafty Catz so do hop over and see what my lovely teamies have created this week.
Thanks for stopping by, have a lovely weekend.
