Sparkle's Christmas Card Challenge #42

I played along with Sparkle and her lovely Design Team again. The challenge was to do some type of distressing on the card. Sounds fun, yes? Here's my take...



I did a lot of sponging and I used my distressing tool around the edges. The image is lightly colored using ink pads and a Dove blender pen. The camera didn't pick up the glimmer shimmer very well. I used SU!'s Irridescent Ice on the snowflakes. Here is a close up for you...



Thanks for stopping by!


Blessings~
