Apologies first of all for my lack of blogs visits this last couple of weeks. I've had two family Christmas's here already (a third one again of 25th) so to say I've been a tad pre-occupied recently is an understatement. Meals to plan and shop for, presents to buy, make and wrap etc. But all so very worth it.
On to this weeks CD Sunday challenge - chosen by Carol - is 'The 3 D's' - DL, Decoupage and Die Cuts. This was a really last minute card as it got to Thursday and I hadn't even thought about the the challenge so it had to be a quickie. I managed to squeeze in some time of Friday to make and post it on the challenge team blog.
The central decoupage scene is from the Docrafts Digital Design CD At Christmas Time.
I coloured the base card with pale blue (very pale) Pan Pastels, added a couple of Memory Box Madeira corners and then glittered them up with some Glamour Dust. I also dobbed a Quickie Glue pen all over the background (snow like?) and Glamour dusted that too. So at 2pm on Friday it as so dark I had to use all the lighting I had in the room and the camera flash still came on. That's why the blue is not showing up I guess.
Hope you'll find time to join in during this very busy time. I'll be choosing my top three for the Home Sweet Home challenge in the next day or so.
Thank you for visiting today.

It is a beautiful card Beryl and I agree with Jenny, it is not a five minute design. Love all the glamour dust.
