1st Christmas Card of 2011

Good Afternoon everyone, hope you are all having a lovely Sunday. Bit dull and rainy her in Liverpool today so it has given me plenty of time to go blog hopping and do some crafting.
I have have made my 1st Christmas card as the title suggests. I fell in love with this image over on a friends blog last week so off I went and ordered it from Pink Gem Designs, you can find him HERE.


I also bought the sentiment stamp and penguin backing paper from Pink Gem Designs (the papers are a digi and are just fab). I coloured Penguin in with my promarkers and then used a quicky glue pen on the present and tree and his hat so I could use my glitter to give it a bit of bling.
The snowflakes DP are from the CC cute christmas collection (I had this printed out to use on another project but hijacked it for this one instead).

Challenges:
Simon Says Stamp Challenge - Christmas in August
Papertake Weekly - Anything Goes

Hope you like it and as always any comments muchly appreciated.
Hugs
