 *Reindeer at christmas*

Today i have made my 2nd christmas card for this year. As the weather is so bad outside i needed a warm feeling to cheer me up !! And what better way than the happy thoughts we all have at Christmas. So here is some christmas magic for you all to share .

The card is a 8x8 scalloped edge card base
I have matted a piece of Kanban white and holographic christmas card stock on to the card base.


The image is sentiment and snowflake embellishments are all also from the Kanban range. (Ready die cut to save my little fingers having to work to hard cutting out )


Using my Bigshot i cut out the matting and layering peices out of silver mirror board  to place my image and embellishments onto .




Finding the mirror board was looking to flat i embossed them with a snowflake design giving the card more depth and texture.
I place a ribbon around a strip of silver mirror card to make the centrer border. once the card was fully assembled i added some finishing touches  which include a tassel , some beautiful light purple metallic pearls and some clear gems for extra sparkle .

I hope that this card has made you feel as warm and cosy as i do now.


I would like to enter this card in to the http://craftcreatoins.blogspot.co.uk/  challenge








Thank you also much for taking the time to look at my work. Have a great day love Caroline ( crafty-bits) xxx
