I made this card using Spellbinders die for the circles and scalloped circles. The image is a Gillian Roberts stamp which I have coloured with Spectrum Noir pens. I added white flower soft and glitter glue to the fluffy parts of the kittens hat for added texture.

All the background papers are from the Me to You Winter Wonderland collection from DoCrafts. The ribbon and the bow are also from the collection. I wanted the green snowflake paper and the red card to be a bit more glittery so I sprayed the both of them with Crafter's Companion's Silver spray and shine.

The snowflakes are also from Spellbinders and are cut from the DCWV Glitter Cardstock stack. I didn't have any metal charms of my own so I created one using two of the snowflakes sandwiched with some DMC red glitter thread in-between. All the snowflakes have Papermania jewels on them.

I hope you all like my first DT card!!
