Pink'n' Green Chrissy card #25


Lili of the Valley challenge #66 is to make a non-traditional Christmas card, so I used pink as my base colours (don't think I've ever made a pink Christmas card that wasn't all girly)  It was also a great excuse to play with my new snowflake dies (covered them in Smooch Illuminate to give them a bit of extra interest).  I had planned to sew round the image but my thread got all jammed half way through so I just pulled it out and hey presto, nice even paper piercing!  I might add some bling to the very bottom line of piercing on the pink as I think it looks like it needs 'something'

Sketch from Fussy and Fancy Friday #20
