Y is for Yuletide

 

Hello, the first of December can you believe it! 

 

I am sharing with you my card for our new theme at ABC Challenges which is:

 

Y is for Yuletide

 

So for the next two weeks we are celebrating Christmas and would love you to join us!

 

Our sponsor is The Paper Shelter and I have used a beautiful image called "Hope".

 

I have coloured the image in with Copic Markers and added lots of snow some with punches, embellishments and liquid pearls.

 

The beautiful papers that i used inspired the colours for my image.

 

Here is my card:
