Glittery Tilda- and a lovely surprise

This Christmas Tilda has been glimmer misted and glamour dusted.....and is a lot more glittery than my usual cards........the photo doesn't show the real  'glitteryness'........think it may be too glittery!!
I received a gorgeous little package of  xmas Stampin up goodies from  the lovely Kath.......a prize in her xmas mini blog candy........and this card is made entirely from those goodies....... and I still have enough left for some more cards........and for my JYC album........ which is also using Stampin Up papers. Thank you Kath.

Tilda has been coloured with copics........the sentiment Inca.......glimmer mist and glamour dust.....everything else Stampin Up.
This fits a lot of challenges this week.....Just Magnolia want 'Christmas'....used the lovely sketch on Friday Sketchers......Totally Gorjuss want 'Anything' ..........Our Creative Corner want a 'Holiday Theme'...........Krafftin Kimmie wants 'Sparkle'........Die Cut Dreams wants 'Glitter Me Silly'........Stamp with Fun wants 'Little Presents'........Creative Card Crew is 'Anything Goes'..........Crafty Creations want 'Red,Green and Gold' and Simon Says want 'Merry Christmas'..........phew!!!!!!  
And my lovely surprise.......got home from work this evening....to find a parcel in the kitchen..........looked like a pizza box........opened it.......it was a pizza box......but definately not pizza in it!!!
At the beginning of November.......I won the 'comments' candy on the Magnolia website.....pretty amazing as hundreds of people leave comments.........with my love of Magnolias you can imagine how excited I was.........but nothing arrived.....no replies to my emails........had more or less resigned myself to getting nothing.........until I opened the pizza box.........WOW........it contained 13 12 x 12 Magnolia papers, 7 rubber stamps and a big bag of flowers.........xmas has really come early.........and as the stamps are xmas ones.......some of next year's xmas cards may be early as well!!!!!
