The image was coloured with my usual Promarkers and highlighted with Glamour Dust for a frosty look. I inked the edge of the die cut topper with some Fired Brick Distress Ink for a splash of colour.
I decided to make a gift box rather than a card for my DT project, it's another pizza style one made from one sheet of A4 card, I've made loads of these this year. The papers are Kaisercraft, and were a magazine freebie, as was the cute bells charm, they go rather nicely with the hammered, metallic red card that I made the box from, although you can't see much of it in the photos. I used a Martha Stewart punch and a narrow strip of green glitter paper to add some interest to the sides of the box, and I finished the top with a big red bow, red pearls and some clear gems.
I'm entering this card in the following challenges -
Milk Coffee - Christmas
Craftitude - #55 - Christmas Sparkle
Stamping with the Dragon - Last Minute Christmas
Crafts and Me - Anything Goes
