Santa Coming to Town with a Balloon

I love this quirky image from the Paper Shelter – Yep, I Have my Methods. I coloured it with Promarkers and Copics, used glitter snow and Glamour Dust for the snow and fur and then cut around the image. I made a fancy fold card – with a bit of a difference to the original idea – and stuck papers from my stash onto it. They looked a bit pale so I distressed them lightly with a blue ink pad. I added several die cuts and punched snowflakes from my stash and glittered them with Glamour Dust. The stars are embossed with silver embossing powder, as is the sentiment – which is from LOTV.

I would like to enter my card into these challenges –
