Guess what I've been doing today!
And my card today...yes, it's another Christmas granddaughter card!! I think we must have lots of baby girls in this village!
I've used the ever so cute 'Snowy & Hedgy' from Penny Black.
I've coloured them with promarkers and flexmarkers and added lots and lots of glitter although the photo doesn't show it up very well.
The background papers are from Nit Wits. I've used Marianne Creatables snowflake and tree dies and a Tim Holtz on the edge alterations die.
