Christmas crafting (or Why I am covered in glitter )


.I was up with the birdies this morning and made 20 Christmas cards before breakfast.I was on a roll so i kept rolling,now even after a shower and breakfast i am still covered in glitter.Pralines and Cream Fairy Dust Glitter to be precise it comes in a little glass shaker and I highly recommend it,I had already  done the printing and cutting out of my images and last night i glossy accented them,So this morning was just all fun.Just have one to make my grand daughter and a Dora card for my god daughter and one with a car on it for her brother.So its Christmas central here in my apartment that i pretend is a cottage.

i love using small doilies
.
I glossy accented the windows in the houses
 
This is the Christmas hatbox i made for myself  usually i make them for others,
