Bellarific Friday...on a Saturday....

Good morning! I'm a bit late with the Bellarific Friday challenge, but thought I would post my card anyway. I really wanted to play along because it was a sketch this week. The sketch had a pieced panel in the background, but I let my paper do the work for me since it looks "pieced" already. The paper is one of my favorites (an oldie, but goodie); I just distressed it a bit to add some extra dimension. The image is paper pieced and colored with pencils, then I added a bit of subtle glitter to the ornaments and star. I like how this one turned out!

This is beautiful Angela. I love the pieced tree. I agree the paper is a "goodie", I hoard mine and only use it once in a while, lol! The glitter adds a fun touch, such a cute card.
