Woohoo!! I had not planned to make a card- but then since the CAS card challenge was to use bling - while, I could not help myself! I really need Birthday Cards -but to me Bling means Christmas!!!
I'm not sure if my photograph will show all of the bling - but once I got started - it was hard to stop!
I started off using subtle copic spica bling pens - but I quickly went for starlight stickles instead ! I'm surprised that I could stop!!! The star has stickles on it, as does the snowmans's hat , nose and gloves and scarf. The snowflakes and snow beneath the snowman is dazzling diamonds - don't think I picked up the sparkle very well in my photo.
Love love to colour with my copics! Unfortunately the paper I tried today did NOT blend my copics so well.
Oh well!! I think I might just have myself a fairly easy Christmas card prototype!!
Thanks for looking.......... and I'll be back to comment more later on! Oh yeah - the card has a white border - difficult to see, I know!

Oh, Debzi, your snowman is SO CUTE!! I saw that the CAS was to use "bling" and I am so tempted, but I'm not so great at CAS cards. You did a marvelous job here and one step closer to finishing those Christmas cards. I'm doing the same thing as I can. One can never get too much bling I say!! TFS!!
