Christmas Dress

This is my neice's Christmas card - very girly!!!  I coloured the image in using my pens and then added sparkly glittery stuff and stickles to the hat, shawl and boots.  I layered up the ribbons and added a double bow.  The flowers are layered with a card candi centre, and I just had to add this gorgeous sparkly twig spray.  Finally some flat backed pearls to finish  A very sparkly, girl Christmas card - but I bet she'd be perfect for a winter birthday card.
