Second post this week already! Can you tell I've been on holiday since last week?! I said I was going to make 3 Christmas cards a day while I was off but I've only managed 3 so far and I've been off for a week! Ah well, it's only July!
This is a super sparkly card today. I love making sparkly things!
I started with three wooden tree embellishments and inked up a swirly Debbi Moore stamp with Versamark. I stamped on to the trees and then added Cosmic Shimmer embossing powder which was heated with a heat tool. I added Tim Holtz Bundled Sage Distress Ink over the top of the embossing so that the swirls resisted and made more of an impact.
To make the backgournd, I took a piece of Create and Craft pearlescent cardstock and used the same DM stamp with Versamark to make the patterns around the edge. I also used the Cosmic Shimmer embossing powder here too. The ribbon was originally cream seam binding which I coloured with the Bundled Sage DI. I added a Creative Expressions dazzler to the centre of the ribbon with Pinflair Glue Gel.
Hope you are all having a good week with plenty of crafty time.
Happy crafting,
