While Shepherds...

Surprisingly there are loads of Christmas challenges out there at the moment, & in my effort to catch up with my Christmas makes I have joined in a few today.  One challenge I haven't done in ages is Winter Wonderland, & I thought I'd have to skip it this time too as I didn't think I had a shepherd or king stamp - then Sam reminded me - I do - this PB called Nativity I think, but I can't find it on my messy desk to check! (Instead of WOMWW - in my case it's what's not!)


Now whilst at the shops today I popped into the wool shop, where I get my ribbons & buttons & I spied this metallic starry stuff.  Haven't a clue what it's called, but it's dirt cheap & looks pretty cool - well I think so!

Challenges;
Totally Papercrafts - Twinkle Twinkle Little Star
Winter Wonderland - While Shepherds...
PBSC - Cute Christmas
Sweet Stampin - All That Glitters - The metallic stars do in real life but they look kinda black by flash photo!
Come & Get It - Monochromatic Sunday  Jx

Hello my little friend what a cute little card this is, love sparkly star stuff -it could be like sequin waste, what's left after they have punched out the shapes, whatever it is it looks good to me!

Hi there, that is a really adorable stamp and a lovely card!

You can sort of see how sparkly the sequin waste looks as you can almost see a reflection in it - I'm sure it's super sparkly in real life!

Thanks for joining in with us this week at Sweet Stampin.
