As you might have guessed I've made this one for my sister's birthday which is on Friday. It's a bit of a sore point that I often get her cards to her late, one year she rang me on the morning of her birthday (a Sunday) and had a 30 minute rant about not getting her cards in time. Soooooo, this year I'm determined to be prepared and will despatch this card today!
Its such a miserable and dull day (weatherwise) today that I don't think I'd get any decent photos of my cards today so popped this one into the scanner. Unfortunately the xmas cards I made with the same kit have a bit of dimension to them so aren't quite so scanner friendly.
I've used a fabulous new image, Lulabelle Shopping, from Digistamp Boutique for my card as I thought her dress was ideal for a bit of digital paper-piecing to perfectly coordinate with the backing papers. I really do love Zoe Pearn's paper designs and have a few of her digikits now but did hesitate about buying this one as I don't do a lot of xmas cards but I've managed to use 5 different papers in this card.
Lulabelle's hair and skin are of course coloured with Promarkers.
I'm entering this card into the September monthly challenge over at Digistamp Boutique, the Charisma Cardz challenge, Anything Goes, and the Allsorts challenge, Plain and Simple.
What a wonderful card, it's gorgeous. Thanks for playing at Charisma. xx

Had to chuckle when I saw the image,her hair reminds me of our new Prime Minister...Julia Gillard (Australia).
