Thank you to all of you who joined in with Domi's sketch last week ,, I really love that sketch and have made several cards using it ,, got myself a mini production line going :-) I enjoyed coming to see them ALL too :-)

We have a FANTASTIC change to our challenge, every week for the month of December !! As a special Christmas Gift Heidi will be giving not her usual $25 spree ,, noooo Heidi is giving away a $50 spree at Simon Says Stamp Superstore! (includes postage)!! Woo Hoo
For my card I used this lovely Hero Arts Reindeer stamp such a cute stamp and so easy to use ,,, I used this on a ''production line too :
I used a Magnolia snowflake circle stamp, inked with pigment ink and heat embossed with Copper Sparkle EP, I then coloured the image with Copics and I then used a glue pen to go over the antlers and sprinked with Art Institute glitter,,, so sparkly, definitely my fave brand !! The papers are from an Echo Park Merry Christmas set . I used a Martha Stewart punch around the page snowflake set and embossed some SU ivory card with a Cuttlebug Swiss Dots embossing folder. I inked around all the edges with pigment ink and embossed with the Copper EP too. I added some pearls ( white ones coloured with a copic marker) to all the centers of the snowflakes and added some brown and cream ribbon across the center, made adouble loop bow and finished with a punched and glittered snowflake :-)
