So of course I needed one last Christmas card.....  Luckily The Stamping Boutique has tons of cute Christmas images,  actually their entire store is adorable.  This is Christmas Reindeer.  I colored him in Copics,  used my Sepia Glitter pens for the ornaments, and LOTS of Stickles on the flakes and border.  This card SPARKLES!!!!
