So, once again a Christmas card, using the pretty Christmas Cottage image from Just Inklined. Coloured with copics, I've added lots of glamour dust for sparkle, and for the black die-cut frame I've used some black glitter paper and a Nellie Snellen die. The papers are from the Melissa Frances - Home for the Holidays collection, and with a little distress ink around the edges they provide a lovely vintage look. Some gold peel-off borders, a gold ribbon bow and some red gems finish it off.
Here's a close up, which provides a little more detail.
Now for some challenges, many of which have a Christmas theme:
