Hi all!Welcome to another week on the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge!

This week the theme is

Please pop by to see what our fabulous guest, Tenia, and the DT have made!! They should be architects!! 

I live on a tiny island, very rural and farming community, no cities here ;-) I wouldn't like to live in a city center but I do miss the buzz and atmosphere of city life, the theatres, galleries, shops, so I often go on mini breaks to cities around Europe. I can't say what my city looks like, maybe Paris with the tall buildings and lofts, if you use your imagination and squint a bit, maybe you can see it ;-) 

I created a citycape Christmas card using a Tim Holtz Sizzix Snowglobe Die Set. 


 For the background I used Alcohol Inks, a Falling Stars Stencil and Alcohol Blending Solution  and added a Santa with Reindeer to fly over the rooftops 


I used Silver Glitter Card to 'shadow' the silhouette and add some lovely 'moonshine sparkle' 


and I finished the inside 


and made a simple matching envelope




Thanks for looking! 

So now it's YOUR turn to get creating!
