Add Texture At Crafty Catz

Good Morning today is a special day as it was 30 years ago that I gave birth to my Son Chris. Happy Birthday Chris hope you have a wonderful day.
Now today is the start of a new challenge at CRAFTY CATZ and it is the lovely talented Kim's turn to pick the theme. So Kim would like to see TEXTURE on your creations this can be many things including Twine, Wool, Lace and many more so dig our those textures or make your card have texture by embossing.
Our sponsor this week is the fab digital company STAMP FAIRY who has allowed us some images.
I picked this cute image with his ski's.

Close up of the image showing the glitter

I coloured the image with my promarkers and used 2 cuttlebug folders dots and snowflakes. I used my memory box christmas tree and circle snowflake dies. Some ribbon from stash and a sentiment I have had forever think it might have been a freebie. Lots of glitter and a little gem for the top of the tree. Lastly a string of eyelash wool across the bottom.
