Winter - Christmas Decoration

This is the second in my little series of hanging Christmas decorations. I have used the same little wooden heart - this time with Picket Fence crackle paint. I distressed the edges with some fab sparkly embossing powder. The script was stamped in blue and then a couple of swirls stamped in graphite and embossed with the sparkly embossing powder. I added some blue gems, a snowflake made from Sizzix die and a couple of punched snowflakes all liberally embossed and sponged with blue ink. I then added a bit of stickles glitter glue in waterfall and a few ribbons tied in a bow. This one's my favourite so far lol.






I am entering this into the following challenges
4CraftyChicks -Anything goes
Justforfun- Anything but a card
PalsPaperArts - Heat embossing
Creativestampfriends -Anything but a card
MakeitMonday- Anything goes
