Holiday Chic: Sparkle with KennyK

Good morning!  I am thrilled to be guest designer again for KennyK over on their challenge blog: KennyK's Krafty Krew!  I was ecstatic when I found out!  Today they are releasing three new holiday images and you are going to LOVE them!  Visit kennykdownloads for a little retail therapy!  This fortnight the challenge is "Holiday Chic: Sparkle" and there are two fabulous sponsors:

FLONZ with a $20 gift certificate

and

KENNYK with 5 digis

It was a tough choice but I finally opted to work with City Star for my project.  I sat down having no idea what I was going to do, but this sketch from Seems A Little Sketchy (#50) really inspired me!  The image is colored with Copics, fussy cut, and popped up on foam squares (of course).  I added glitter to the "snow" areas and to the pompom of her hat for some sparkle on the image.  Papers are My Mind's Eye - Christmas.   I thought they were classic, elegant, and chic- perfect for my creation.  I punched a few snowflakes with my Martha Stewart collection, added A LOT of rhinestones and the lovely Frostyville border from Memory Box, and I was done.  The Beaded Square die from Spellbinder works so well with bling or pearls and I just love the effect!

Want to play along?  Go visit KennyK's Karfty Krew and be sure to check out all the gorgeous makes from the team while you're there!  They are an incredibly talented bunch, and I am honored to be a guest among them this week!  You have two weeks to play along and a KennyK image is required.

Thanks for visiting!
