12 Weeks of Christmas WEEK 11 Island Indigo Christmas Lodge Tree

Well, I guess we are coming to an end of these posts since Christmas is only days away. Yes DAYS away people! I have one last Christmas card to share with you and it is one of my favourites. The photo is a bit on the dodgy side and it doesn't show all the glitter sorry.

I know, I have a slight addiction to the Christmas Lodge stamp set and also to flags & Island Indigo so I thought - Why not put them all together! This is one of my Christmas cards I'm sending out to family & friends. I used Island Indigo on the card and then "thumped" the stamp with a midnight muse marker before stamping, giving the image a 3D effect. I then added Dazzling Diamonds glitter. It sparkles at night & is so pretty but unfortunately the camera did not capture that.
