Christmas

 Morning-no posts for a week then two in two days.- and a Christmas one to boot lol.

I made my fave(at the moment)diamond point shaped card and P.papers from The Works.

The image was a freebie one  7yrs ago from HERE. Coloured with promarkers and added glossy accents and TH distress glitter I found from a couple of years ago,the sentiment was computer generated in Dafont.

As adorable as ever, your little bird images make such cute cards and your colouring sets them off a treat. I just love them to bits and paired with your fabulous Diamond Point Cards, it's a real winner!
