Add some sparkle

Morning and welcome to my corner of the world! Today we have a new challenge up for you joy over at PFP. The theme is "Add some Sparkle". That's nice isn't it? I love sparkle but there is something I don't like with it, it's so hard to take a photo of!

We have gotten our winter hour back by now and it gets dark quicker and quicker each day now, so I am sorry about the photo. There was just not much enough time to take a better one. But you got a whole extra hour you say, well I did! But then I lost it. LoL

For this card have I used a really old image from the Paper Shelter, doesn't make it less cute, does it? I am kind of having a TPS week here as all my coming cards this week is sponsored by the Paper Shelter so I thought, why not take it the whole way? So I did, you have a Christmas/winter themed week ahead of you if you visit me the coming days. :)

The glittery letters looks even more sparkling here than in real life... lol

Well, then. The designer papers are from Dovecrafts and the line Back to Basics Christmas (modern). I adore the wonderful colours in this pad and it's a big chance you get to see more of my cards dressed in these papers. I love the green, greyish blue together and browns. Just yummy! I followed a sketch that I found over at Lili of the Valley as I am really lacking designer inspiration at the moment. It's such joy to colour, but figure out what to do with it, not that easy at the moment. I have also printed my images fairly large lately, not leaving room for much more on my creations. 

This card only have a ribbon and a few gemstones as decorations. Well and the snowy stuff from Anitas. My snowflakes on the image is even leaving a shadow as they became a bit high this time and my angle with the camera became a bit strange. Oh well, it's a card and I love the image. I have used the snow flake border from Magnolia, Sweden once again. And the big snow flake is made with a Joy die that I bought cheep during the spring. :) I have used a swedish die for my sentiment and it says Merry Christmas in swedish. I used some glitter card paper from I think, Dove craft as well. And it is mega glittery. It even shows here. Also for spakle there is glitter on the snow tex and a gold glittery border around my card. 

Sponsoring us this week is Polka Doodles that offer one winner one digi of their choice. So come on now and that the chance of winning a lovely looking image. 

And I can't wait to see your sparkly creation! Come on and join us now!

Love n hugs
