Blue Christmas

Do you all remember Shakin' Stevens? He kinda popped into my head when I was thinking of a title for this blog post.  His was one of the first albums I ever had and I loved the song 'Blue Christmas'.
I generally leave it until November before I start making Christmas cards, but I have the cute 'Winter Sprite' from Aurora Wings so decided to do at least one now!

 Products used:

  • Card blank
  • DoCrafts patterned paper
  • Coloured cardstock
  • Assorted snowflake dies
  • Papermania shimmer dots
  • Snowflake ribbon
  • Crafter's Companion sentiment stamp
  • Memento Dew Drop 'Tuxedo Black'
  • ProMarkers - Tan, Sunkissed Pink, Putty, Almond, Denim, Blue Pearl, Powder Blue, Midnight Blue, China Blue, Cobalt & Indigo



I am entering my card into the following challenges:
  1. Aurora Wings - #67 Joyous Occasions
  2. Crafty Hazelnut's Patterned Paper Challenge - May Anything Goes
