Mo's dp 2 challenge dt

I know my blog has been rather quiet of late, lots going on behind the scenes, will update you soon
Fro now we have a new challenge on Mo's challenge blog set by the wonderfully talented Iulia who gave us this great sketch to work with:
i just love working with a good sketch, so easy, in light of that i do hope you will pop by and join our challenge.  Fro my card i used a newish image from Mo's new store called "little Elf Mim" isnt this just adorable?  Colored with my copics and given a good going over with star dust stickles.
The trim and pom pom on the elfs hat was given the flower soft treatment, and then just for good measure i added a punched poinsettia that i made using the Nellie Snellen punches and gave that some diamond dust.  The sentiment is one that i got last year from the LOTV while i was at the NEC.

Hope everyone is having a great week
