It's never too early for Christmas - a card for Shimmerz

Hello all, and yes, I know, I know, it's only October, but...... if you have loads of Christmas Cards to make, - it's never to early to start.
Here's a sneak peek of one I made using some lovely Shimmerz sprays and paints. To see the full card with instructions, all you need to do is click HERE.
Thanks for dropping by and happy Wednesday!

Just got a whole lot of new stamps from a brilliant place called the Stamp Smith. This is the image that I first saw on Docraft and really liked. I asked the friend who has used it in an ATC, where she got it. Well she borrowed it from a friend who got it from ebay as a one off. But.... it had a title. I googled the title, and hey presto found the site. They have great stamps and offer a really friendly fast service. I highly recommend them!
