We are happy to say that we have two sponsors this week both offering great prizes. Firstly  Cupcake Cards and Crafts  with a prize of a paper collection of the winners choice and also sponsored by Saturated canary who are kindly offering two digi images of the winners choice. I was going to make a card with a fab saturated canary  digi image but had a few technical problems this end which put a sto to it :( any way I hope you like the card I did make using a pre coloured image by Mo Manning. Hopefully you can pick up that I have used sparkles a plenty on the card by adding, glossy accents, glamour dust, stickles , a shiney bell and a fab snowflake pin encrusted in diamonds (well looky likeys) :) 

Ribbon, pin and bell are from the Ribbon Girl.

I am going to enter this into Paper Sundaes Challenge - Anything Christmas

Option of something dangly :)

Over at Papertake weekly the theme is anything goes with an added option of adding something dangly. I made this card on a weekend away with some lovely ladies, using Molly Bloom and stamping Up stamps, holly leave  punch and a star spellbinders.  I hand cut a heart and sprinkled it with glitter and added it onto the wreath with button twine (from the Ribbon Girl) .
I used lots of Kraft and glossy accents to add sheen.

The idea of the wreath came from Molly Bloom creator Clare Rowlands.

 For my card I used Hero Arts Big holiday Words stamp stamped with versa mark ink pad and sprinkled black embossing powder over it and after cutting it to size ans stitching around it placed  a Molly Bloom  image coloured with copics  onto it.

To finish it off I added a splattering  of Glossy Accents and glitter..
