Hello to all in Blogland.  I hope this finds you well.  My card  for Charisma Cardz Challenge features the fabulous Merry Christmas Bea from Teddy Bo & Co and she is lovely.

List of Materials used to make this card:

This card is made from a sheet of 12 x 12 Core'dinations paper and is folded at 3" x 9" Horizontally and 6" Vertically.  2 x 3" panels have been cut from the sheet and the centre panel has been folded at 1", 2", 3" and cut at 4".  
A decorated sheet of Christmas paper from my stash.
Lots of lovely die cuts from silver mirror card - trees and swirls and glitter card snowflakes. Snowflakes are a Marianne Die, Flowering Christmas Tree and Frosty Border are Memory Box Dies.   Pearls have been used to decorate the snowflakes
The lovely Miss Bea is coloured using a mixture of Flexmarker and Promarker Pens. 
I have used some Anita's Glitter snow and decorated with extra glitter detail.
