Little Hanglar.....


Things have been so busy around the Dol House!!!! Just your usual things....kids, laundry, taxi services and our house renovations....that my crafting time has just taken a back seat, which I really do miss. My niece has a 2nd birthday coming up so I really wanted to make her a special card.
Out came this adorable little Hanglar. I coloured her all up with copics and drew up some balloons, cut them out,coloured them and then added LOTS of glitter. I thought I would try using a new MS corner heart punch for around the circle.I think it adds a little flare. I punched them out and just cut them so I could glue them all around the circle.





I hope you are keeping warm!
