Perfect Sentiments Challenge 10: A Sparkly Christmas

"It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas, everywhere you go" ...even here at The Perfect Sentiment.  And there is always a twist and this week's challenge is to use sparkle and a Christmas sentiment.  Brrrrrr...... it is cold here in Minnesota with a bit of snow and the perfect time to stay inside and work on Christmas cards.  Perhaps this week's challenge will spark(le) an idea and get you well on your way.  There are so many items on the market that add from a touch of sparkle to all over twinkle.

Our sponsor this week is Kania's Amuse Studio with a $15.00 gift certificate.

(Please note :  If you are this week's prize winner and live outside the United States, we are unable to award you a physical prize,, but you will receive a digital prize sent via email.  By the time we complete customs paperwork and all associated with sending packages outside the United States, the cost is more than the prize value.  This also includes Canada.  But the following are considered prize eligible:  APO and PPO box addresses or a PO box in the US.  We appreciate your understanding.)

For my inspiration several Christmas carols came to mind but one stood out - "Silent Night".  Perfect!
