Sparkle and Shine


 I am on a roll with the Christmas cards, and while I am not in a mad panic to get them made I am enjoying colouring them in as well.
 This is going ot be for one of my neice's, who is pink mad!!  I have used Sparkle and shine, one of Sugar Nellie's Christmas digis, and teamed her up with Nitwits papers.  She is coloured in copics and then glamour dustedd for a little extra sparkle!  The dp is stitched using my now fixed sewing machine (hitting it and cursing seemed to work!!), and I added some lace, a layered flower with a button centre and a Craftwork Cards sentiment.

Laying aside the colour.... it's fab. I have tried to print her off but she looks tiny! What am I doing wrong... and why do I not feel guilty that you've made 20983284089 Christmas cards and I haven't made any?!
