Christmas fairies

Hello again

I'm well and truly in Christmas mode now and here's another Christmas card.  I can't help but think these two fairies are a bit mischievous!  I thought I'd avoid the traditional reds/greens for this one and have coloured it in blues/silvers (but the silver doesn't show up to well).  The stamp is of course from LOTV and I've coloured it with ProMarkers/Flexmarkers and metallic ProMarkers and used Stickles to add extra sparkle.  The papers are LOTV, button and bell are from The Ribbon Girls,the die is Spellbinders and the ribbon, gems and embossing powder from my stash.

Stamp - Forever Friends

Die - Memory Box

Card - Papermill Direct

Glitter card, Stickles and Glamour Dust - my stash
