A Shiny Christmas

It's less than a week until Christmas. And less than 2 weeks left in 2013.  Where did the year go?  I'm seeing stars! Which is good because it's time for the new Dare To Be Sassy Thursday Challenge (#208) at Sassy Studio Designs.  And this week the challenge is "Sparkle and Shine" (use things that sparkle and shine, can be items or glitter, Stickles, etc...).
Here's my card.

Stuff I Used:

Image-Don't Open 'til Christmas Sassy digital by Sassy Studio Designs

Colored with Copics

Skin-E00, E11

Eyes-G03

Lips-R20, R22

Hair-E41, E43, E44

Earring-Sakura Silver metallic gel pen

Pants-B91, B95

Top-C1, C3, C5

Present-B91, B95, C1, C3, C5, Sakura clear glitter gel pen

DP-Recollections Starry Night pack

Cardstock-the Paper Company Rainy Day pack, Staples Grey

Ribbon-Michaels $1 bin Silver trim

Sentiment-Computer generated

My "shiny" elements are the DP, earring, ribbon on present, silver ribbon/trim.  I popped up the blue panel on homemade light blue foam squares.  And the image was popped up on more light blue foam squares.  I added a smaller image and more DP on the inside.  I liked that the DP pack had the same pattern in both the grey and the blue with silver.  That's how I got the idea to match and repeat the panel for the front.  There are a few patterns in the pack that are both in grey and blue/silver.  And it was a Hot Buy, so it was only $5!

Now it's your turn, break out all your supplies and make something for the challenge.  It doesn't have to be a Christmas card. What about all the cards you'll need for next year?

Remember, Santa is still watching and if you don't play along, he won't bring you everything you want.

Thanx for looking and please comment.
