Make it sparkle...


 Good morning, a new challenge starts today over at Crafty Catz,
our sponsor this week is

 Last Minute Manda 


and
 the optional twist is 
Make it Sparkle,
I made a simple layered card featuring a cute sponsor image from the Pipsqueak Little Snowman set.
I've used my Copic markers to colour, and added loads of white glitter to Pipsqueak's hat, a touch of red glitter on the snowman's stars. I've added some artificial snow which has a sparkle too. The DP is matted onto red glitter cardstock. 

It's been a busy week here- we're replacing the internal doors in our bungalow, so chaos everywhere. I never imagined it would entail so much upheaval! Marvin has been so good....interesting items belonging to the carpenter all around the house... so far he's only nicked one thingy (not sure what it was) and he gave it back without any teeth marks in it... 

Thanks for visiting
Chris

This is very cute Chris and I love that background paper! Marvin is such a character but very good for returning the tool lol. Inside door replacements are on our to do list if we ever get this roof finished!!!

This is super cute and a lovely sentiment. That background paper really suits the image too.
Glad Marvin didn't leave any teeth marks!
