Christmas Cottage Card

Picture 021
This is card I made using a photo of my in-laws house a few years ago.  I took the picture when we had unexpected snow, it was late afternoon and the light was fading into a beautiful blue colour.
I put the photo at a jaunty angle onto a blue background and  mat and layered it on silver card. To add a subtle sparkle I added translucent micro glitter to the trees, roof and ground plus two snowflake punchies  The greeting was done on my computer.
