I have already made one similar card here back in October, but still had some smaller bits that I thought looked OK so used them to make this!
This was a card where I didn't have to flick bits of Gold Cosmic Shimmer powder everywhere like the last time as it was already done... and still not cleaned up properly either... but as it's Christmas the gold sparkley bits on the walls and the PC monitor look rather festive....
I did though add a few more bits of gold (carefully) to bits of the die cut trees and painted a teeny snippet of card (from the floor) with the gold then punched out a teeny star. Left over bits torn to make the snowdrifts at the bottom and some more sparkly glittery gluey stuff dragged across it.
Quite pleased with the way this one turned out - shimmer is good and the different colours achieved by the smooshing on close up looks quite reasonable!!

Still haven't got rid of this dreadful cough and am not 100% - feel like I have had this cold and bad chest for ages (well over a week at any rate...)- there's a lot of it about I'm told.
Am off again today for a few days - back at the end of the week. - this was supposed to be a relaxing break with a bit of bowls played just for fun with some good friends thrown in - am hoping I don't get on everyone's nerves when I start coughing and spluttering!!!!
Have a great week. x

I love your pretty trees Viv and the snowfall background goes beautifully. I hope you enjoy your bowls break with your friends, and relaxing a bit may help to clear up the cough and cold. x
I like your trees cut from the background piece. They look really good. Must try that shredded paper malarkey for creating snow drifts and hillocks. Yours look really good. look at it this way if you cough in just the right place you could put your oppenent of their stroke so to speak. hugs Mrs A.

Brilliant card Viv, I find it hard to believe no-one has commented, I guess they're awaiting moderation. I have that folder and it's underused , I have some wee tree dies on order so may try this if my brain remembers 😝
Thanks for sharing, 😊
