Baubles...

...or Christmas things that hang.

Challenge 42 over at "CHNC" asked for baubles or things that hang. This is the card I came up with...
The base card was a 6x6 inch smooth white CS card blank. The front was completely covered with PP and a topper attached in the lower right-hand corner.
The background PP is from one of this year's paper packs from DoCrafts - Enchanted Christmas. It is like a close-up of a Christmas tree with baubles and lights.
The topper is from last year's DoCrafts range - Henbury Lane. It is a foiled decoupage topper of baubles and it has the sentiment 'On the 12th day of Christmas'.

I was in two minds as to whether I should glitz-up the background paper or not...especially as the topper is foiled - I'm still undecided. I might add some Stardust gel pen to the twinkling lights; I'm not sure. What do you think?......................
