This card will be entered into the Challenges at Mod Squad Blog, Animals (including birds) and Simon Says Wednesday, Anything Goes!
I used the Gina K Designs stamp set, Peace And Joy. First time getting any of these stamps inky, whahoo! I stamped many little holly leaves onto the card stock base. Then I added a bunch of red rhinestones for the berries all over. The Cardinal image was stamped on white card stock in Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored with Copic Markers. I used Heat and Stick Powder and Dazzling Diamonds Glitter, both by Stampin' Up! These products are simply AMAZING! The glitter that is permanently adhered to the image is outstanding, soooo sparkly! And it stays where it's put as you reheat it for a second time to seal it all in place. I then added some green glitter paper using a corner punch to frame the Cardinal. I also added a little border of Holly Designer Paper on the inside of the card to tie it all together.
Hope your day sparkles and shines, you know like the snow that is falling....AGAIN!.....and thanks so much for coming by!
Enjoy~~
You must have been inspired by the sparkle in the snow and in your smile! This card is sooooo sparkly. I don't think that you could have add any more. I absolutely love the special little red rhinestones. Too precious and a start on your Christmas cards.
