Christmas In June!

Good afternoon!
Well it seems ages since I crafted in the afternoon, but I got that chance yesterday while Keiran watched a dvd! And here is what I made...

Yup...a Christmas card! Well the title did give it away lol!
This is Aurelia Joy from Pollycraft...isn't she pretty? I have coloured her with Promarkers. The papers are some random strips I had in my DP box...sorry, no idea what they are. I inked the edges of them with Seafoam Versacolour to make them stand out a little, as I didn't want to cut a whole new sheet of matching background card! I then added lots of glitter and gems. Oh and the sentiment is a free Polka Doodles one from a mag last Christmas. 

Oh one last thing...when I had put the card together and picked it up to admire it and take a photo, I had stuck it all on the wrong way so it was a backwards card! I had originally made the card to the actual layout of the sketch but I had to turn the image so the card could be opened lol! Of course, now the papers are all sideways but what can you do! I was going to cut the card in half and re-mount the entire front panel onto a new card blank, but I decided it didn't look too bad...

Ok...gym time! :)
