With A Grateful Prayer And A Thankful Heart

I have shared before that Charles Dickens' book 'A Christmas Carol' is one of my favourites. Over the years I have watched numerous film version, some better than others. Strange as it seems I  just love the Muppets version. It does stick fairly closely to the book and much of the dialogue is directly lifted from Dickens. The line 'With a grateful prayer and a thankful heart' comes from the final song in the film when the reformed Scrooge is handing out gifts. I just thought it went well with the image for the second challenge at Mari Ko Creations.

The flowers in the image have been printed out three times and decoupaged onto the main image for some depth.

This card is made up from bits in my snippet box which is somewhat overflowing at the moment!

  3. The embossed silver panel gives this project so much texture and glam. It is a very pretty backdrop for this image.
