'Under the Stars'

Hello everyone Ann-Marie here today to share a little craftiness with you all.  

Well today I have a little something Christmassy to show you.  I know it may be a little early for some but for me I must say its been on my mind for a few weeks now that I should get started so here is my first Christmas card of the year.

First off I chose my image and I have a soft spot for Bildmalarna images so I used 'Under the Stars' and I so love this stamp.  Next I chose my papers and went with Maja Design Vintage Frost Basics '8th December' and '9th December' and these are simply beautiful folks.  I decided to distress the edges a little with my scissors and then inked over them with Tim Holtz 'Walnut Stain' distress ink.  A few dies used on my card this time so I've listed them below with links to the store as usual.  What I love about Christmas cards is I can add tons of sparkles so my card would not be complete without a dose of 'star dust' Stickles on a few edges and die cuts.
