Good Morning & Happy Monday Stamping Friends!

I'm so excited to be this week's hostess @ ABC Challenges & my theme for you all is to make Christmas cards with sparkle/bling!  I don't think I've made 1 Christmas card this year that doesn't have some sparkle on it somewhere so this idea was quite natural for me!!!

I based my card off of one that I received @ Convention with the exception that I added rhinestones, shimmer mist---which you can't see in the photo---and dimension.  It's pretty basic but I do LOVE the final look & I hope I've inspired you to play along with us!!!  Check out our blog for even more inspiration & after you've been inspired; link your beautiful creations here by next Sunday, December 9, 2012 @ noon EST.  

Thanks so much for stopping by & have a great rest of the day!
Until Next Time,
Hugs & Love,

    Jackie, this card is absolutely lovely! The bird image is so realistic and your coloring is perfect. Also love the layout and of course, the bling!

    I certainly wouldn't call that basic Jackie! Love it!

    BTW I have finally done my first YouTube video - can't figure out how to get it on my blog yet - but I thought you might like a peek. (And my project IS basic! LOL)
