Card made from Fizzy Moon Decoupage & paper pad

I made this card at the end of last month to send to my friend in the USA for the Bear Lovers group Christmas swap.

 This is the pad I used.  There are two of each picture sets (6 layers) and already precut so you just have to push them out.  No cutting involved.  Plus lots of pretty pages.  Unfortunately you can't see the glitter in the scan.

Amy has some other lovely cards she made from another Fizzy Moon paper pad on
