Week 12: Do You Stack Up - Shine on!

Today's card is for this weeks challenge at DYSU.


This weeks challenge is:
SHINE ON!


I have used a super cute Christmas Nativity image from Heather Ellis' Etsy Store; Digi Stamp Characters.  Heather is one of our sponsors this week.


I printed the image out twice, once on the white card and once using a piece of sparkly card rescued from an old commercial birthday card, so that I could paper piece the dress, halo and star.


That lovely spotty paper was free with a magazine a few years ago and has been sitting around gathering dust! But when I decided to use a pink colour scheme this was perfect! The sentiment and buttons are SU. And I used white dimensional paint for the sweet little lamb!


So happy to have another card ready for Christmas! I was aiming to make 5 per month, sadly that has not happened but every little helps! Right?

Our two sponsors today are:

Can't wait to see all your shiny, sparkly creations! So what are you waiting for! Load up your cards at DYSU.
