Trimcraft challenge


Trimcraft
has a challenge running at the moment to encourage us all to get on with our Christmas cardmaking, each week has a different theme and this week's one is a recipe:

One red element - anything goes.
Some glitter - any colour
One ribbon - any colour

I have made this card accordingly! I have used Tina's first Nativity as my image and coloured her with waterclour pencils and Twinkling H2o's with a touch of glitter on the wings and dress from Sakura Pens. I then added ultra fine glitter to her furry hem and cuffs. I distressed the edge of the card and mounted the image on green card also with distressed edges. The background paper was from a Let's make Cards for Christmas CD free from a recent Crafts Beautiful magazine. I finished it off with a sentiment printed from the computer and some ribbon and a brad from my stash.
