up to my ears in glitter and mirri board ! must be christmas

This card was made using a 8 ins square card blank, gold star mirror card and elements from the Humphrey's corner CD ROM by crafters companion.  I used a topper from the card companions section and then choose some coordinating backing papers to matt and layer the card.  I never start with a layout my cards always seem to evolve which i was never sure was the correct way to do it but having seen one of the crafting masters say the same on c and c i am glad to say i am not the only one lol.  It is true to say my craft room looks like i have been burgled once the card is finished but at least i have had fun and i am usually pleased with the result although not always.  The finishing touch was added with a peel off with the word brother on it mattered and layed again to give the card dimension and a sentiment from the CD to also add balance to the card.  I also added a matching insert with suitable verse and ta dar! finished hope you like it.will try to fit another blog in soon (now i am a celebrity has finished i seem to have gained more time!)
