Picture Perfect!


The challenge this time over at Lexi's Creations is 'Picture Perfect', in other words to include a photo in your creation. I used a picture of my son taken in all the snow we had earier in the year to make a rather special christmas card. I think it might be going to my Great Auntie as I think she'll appreciate it and it will make a nice change from a school photo!! I used the lovely Sammie Snowman (you can find him here ), printed him onto pearlescent card for a bit of sparkle, coloured with promarkers and sakura gel pens. His hat has had some Doodlebug crushed velvet added to resemble snow and I also added some stickles for a bit of sparkle.
The snowflakes were made using a cuttlebug die and layered up with a gem and the whole card was finished with a length of gorgeous pom pom braid which was a present from my sister - thanks Sharon!!!

Head on over to Lexi's Creations to take a look at the rest of the design teams fab creations and join in for the chance to win a fantastic prize from our sponsors Letraset!!
