Mo's Dream Team DT call

 


Evening Everyone,
Have you heard that Mo's Dream Team has a DT Call,now i know EVERYONE adores her images and if your like me then you cant wait to get your hands on them to print out and colour i can honestly say that there has not been an image yet that i haven't adored colouring,i have tons of images but have only recently been able to print them off due to computer and printer problems....all i can do is keep everything crossed that my work is good enough and what they are looking for as i would be thrilled too bits if i was chosen........
For my entry I've used employee #3355 and you can find him here,i have coloured him with distress inks and added Kars glitter glue to his Christmas baubles and hat,the papers are from the MME Holly By Jolly paper and accessories kit as is the sentiment tag,I've used a holly punch from my stash and two different snowflake punches also from my stash which i have layered up and covered with glitter glue i also went around all the edges of the papers with glitter too the green and red flat backed pearls i got from Wild Orchid Crafts....

I'm also entering this card into the following challenges -
