A 'charming' card for the I love Promarkers Challenge

I have a quick share for you today. This image from Pollycraft was release a little while ago and I coloured it in when it was released but only made it into a card recently. I have been making lots of Christmassy cards lately so I thought I would have a bit of a change and enter the challenge at 'I love Promarkers'.

To make the card, I used a black patterned paper I bought in a job lot at the Farnborough Make it show, layered it on to some turquoise card and sewed around the edges with pink thread. I wrapped some pink gingham ribbon around the layered card and then added it to the card front. I cut a small label shape, stamped my sentiment, set it with an eyelet then pierced a hole with my pokey tool to hang my star charm from. I tied my ribbon into the eyelet, distressed the edges of the tag and added it to the card with a foam pad. As a finishing touch, I added a button tied with black string.
Have a great Sunday!
