Christmas sparkle.....

Morning peeps hope you are having a fabbie weeend, I spent yesterday getting very inky and messy....went through quite a few baby wipes I can tell you back to class tomorrow to finish off our projects, lots of beeswax and utee going on.

The challenge over at Craft Individuals has started and this month the theme was chosen by Brenda Brown she has chosen Festive Sparkle, to join in all you need to do is use at least one Crafty Individuals product and not only that Jean is giving all entrants a discount code of 25% off any of their products on line......and have you checked out the new stamps.....fabaroonie. For my card I have used one of the very first stamps I brought from them featuring this sweet angel carrying a tree CI 211, I coloured the image in with prismas added glitter for the snow and then triple embossed, then popped in into the freezer to crack the surface. The frame is coloured with gold dabber with white and black embossed snowflakes. The background is gold embossed using the Christmas script stamp CI 058.
Unfortunately my sparkle dosn't show that well from the photos.....but trust me its there...lol.

Challenges
Really Reasonable ribbons...winter holiday.
The Stampman......emboss it.
Raise the bar .....anything goes.
Delicious doodles.....emboss it.
Its all about the vintage.....make your own background papers.
sweet Stampin'...all that glitters
hugs n' smiles

Nursing a sore finger tip this morning....Utee gets hot....lol

What a wonderful piece Daniele, when you enlarge the picture you can see the shimmer and sparkle on the embossing. I love the design and the banner sentiment, perfect for our CI theme this month.
Enjoy your Sunday.
