I made one for each of my girls, Maria and Annabel.
I am so excited that they are both going to be heading home for the holidays.
This is definitely my favourite card of the year - and really represents the more CAS style I have been doing of late.
I made the image up with a couple of digis from Digi Stamp Boutique - the car is from the 'we've moved' set and the tree is 'Xmas frame' tree.
I wanted to keep everything nice and crisp and sharp, so instead of colouring the image I used digi papers from Pink Petticoat ( leaves and stripes).
I also made the sentiment on my comp.
I really wanted to add some glitter to the stars on the tree, but in the interest of CAS I stopped myself :-)
Then to finish off, I tied some whispy string around the card and added a little star charm with baker's twine.
I would have preferred a snowflake, but I didn't have any left.
