First Chrimbo Card of 2012

Well, I may have been a teeny tiny bit slow getting out of the starting blocks, but finally here it is ... my first Christmas card of 2012. I'm determined that this year I'm going to do better than last year and get cards made ahead of time (where have I heard that one before lol!!??!!)

 I haven't inked up this darling LotV teddy for a while and have been meaning to get round to it; and I spotted a couple of challenges which meant this was the perfect time :-)

Stamps: LotV "James Bear - In The Snow"; LotV Christmas sentiment circles;

Media: Promarkers and Flexmarkers; glamour dust on hat and snow;

Paper: s.e.i.;

Supplies: sparkly gems from my stash;

Tools: lacy circle nestabilities; Cuttlebug "Ice Crystal" and "Snowflakes #2" dies; Memory Box "Snowflake Corner" die; Cuttlebug "snowflakes" and Crafts Too "snowflakes" embossing folders.
