I stamped and colored all of these lights with Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers and then used the coordinating dies to die cut them out!

in the background, I used some white embossing paste and the Petite Snow Stencil to create a little bit of texture in the background!
once they were attached to the card, I used the Stickles to add some glitter to the lights!! LOOOVE that look!

my next card uses the sweet, adorable images from Christmas Trimmings!

I just love that holiday-theme and cute girl image!
I used Distress Inks in Chipped Sapphire, Mermaid Lagoon and Peacock Feathers to ink blend the sky, then used some (more) white embossing paste and the Petite Snow Stencil to add a little texture!
