anyway here is my inspirational piece, but do hop over  to the main challenge site to see the rest of the amazing inspiration from my sister meeces :)

I made a card, you can never have too many hand made Xmas cards. 

The base colour on this one is red pearlescent and I used the grand nestie oval and scallop oval for the image, the MS punch for the ribbon holder, my bow maker to assist me making a gorgeous double bow from this wonderful ribbon from Grimsby crafts.  I added a little sparkly pom pom from a local department store along with a gorgeous charm and several of those beautiful pearls from the Hobby House.


Here is the close up of the image coloured in copics, I loved colouring this one and I used Atyou Glitter pens on the parcels.

Do hop over and join us for the challenge :)
