Little Star

I'm going all Christmassy today with 'Little Star', a Lili of the Valley cutie. I coloured him with watercolour pencils, and used my Cuttlebug 'Swiss Dots' and Snowflakes' folders, and a Papermania border folder to emboss plain white card. I lightly distressed the edges, added a Lili of the Valley sentiment (embossed in silver), and a few snowflakes cut using  Marianne Designs and Cuttlebug dies. For a touch of sparkle, I gave a generous coating of 'Crystal' Stickles to the snowflakes and fur trim on the bear's hat.
