Stuck Santa

A couple weeks ago, I won the chance to be a guest designer for Penny's Challenge.  So, this week begins my challenge, and I was given this fun image by the sponsor, Dr. Digi's Stamps.  The challenge (as always) is: Anything Goes.  Here is the card I created for your inspiration:

I decided to keep it simple in order to allow the image to shine.  I die cut the panel with a stitched rectangle die (this is probably my favorite die; I use it more than any other die, I'm pretty sure!)  Then I die cut an icicle border out of white glitter paper.  I stamped the sentiment and added some snowflakes around it with light gray ink.  After coloring the image, I added a very fine diamond glitter to the snow parts of the image.  You can see all the glittery goodness in the photo below:

Thanks for stopping by.  Make sure you head over to the Penny's Challenge blog to see what the Design Team created for this challenge.
