It's a blue Christmas

Hello all and I hope that your week is going well?  It seems to have been a hectic start to my week - some weeks are just like that aren't they?  I've got quite a few cards I need to get done for orders for people and then added onto family things like my son's birthday and my daughter heading off for 2 weeks - not to mention getting to grips with a new job! - and I'm definitely keeping busy lol!

And thank you all for your kind comments - they really do mean so much.  I've certainly got into the swing of Christmas cards and have another one to share with you using a gorgeous LOTV stamp 'Christmas Star'


I've coloured the stamp with copics and added some flowersoft on the 'fur' trim and lots of glamour dust glitter! 

The backing papers are from K&Co and LOTV.  I've added a pompom trim and a die cut tree (Memory Box 'Elyse tree'), ribbon from stash and button & snowflake charm.

The sentiment is also from LOTV. 
Hope you like my 'blue Christmas'! 
I promise to try and catch up with everyone's blogs over the next couple of days - and big apologies for being a bad blogger!  Sometimes time just runs away from me! 
Back soon,
Kim x 

I'm entering this card into the following challenges:-
Craft Room Challenge - trees/leaves
Ladybug Crafts - winter wonderland
Bunny Zoes Crafts - something blue
Craft Your Passion - glitter
Cutie Pie Challenge - cute christmas

    The colour palette on this card is beautiful and suits the sweet stamp so well. Love the sparkles and flower soft you have added to the image. Both bring lovely light and texture to it. The shiny metallic elements work beautifully as do the ribbons and trim. Very well designed card. It makes me happy just to look at it. Thanks for joining our Glitter and Gloss challenge at Craft Your Passion this week. I hope we see you again soon.
