Last minute shopping

When I thought of last minute shopping, I thought of rushed wrapping and paper everywhere!  This led to the collaged background on this card:



The card is for the Challenge at Sparkle and Glitter:

The card uses scraps of christmas papers left over from other cards.  I tore some of them and left others as they had been cut.  It is supposed to convey the mess of paper all over the place when you have left everything to the last minute!  Guess who knows all about that!

The image is one from Sliekje Stamps which I coloured to match the background papers.
