Just Magnolia and hAnglar and sTanglar challenge........

Good Morning!!!!
I am finally back with a card!!
I am all moved it and settled with the exception
of a crafting space!! LOL I use my closet!!
(I am trying to fix that!)

Anyways this week we have a surprise and a new challenge!
We have talked about it and the team has decided
that along with Magnolia's, hAnglar and sTanglar images
can be used as well! 

I am sorry that mine is a Christmas card! Your all probably
sick of seeing them but I didn't get to make
that many this year and I will be meeting my brother and his 
family for a late holidays get together tomorrow.

Now it has been a while since I have colored so I
warn you it is not very good! LOL

(The layout is from last week's challenge.) 
I received a beautiful card and some goodies from
the lovely Tammi and inside was this gorgoeus paper!!
(Thanks again so much Tammi!)
I added some distress paint to the edges and used
alot of my glitter pen to achieve the gold look
on the ornaments.  The JoY is cut from the
cuttlebug and the lace is from JoAnn's.
I couldn't find my twine as of yet so my button is empty!

Here is a close up:

My image was colored with distress inks and twinkling h20's.
Well that is it, make sure to stop by the rest of the DT's
blogs and see their gorgeous cards!!

Best wishes to all of you for the happiest and healthiest
New Year!  Enjoy the celebrations and be safe!

:)Kathy
