I just stopped by Mary's Blog, VeryInkyFingers, ink to paper to fingers, and she made this gorgeous Christmas card using a napkin and Dazzling Diamonds.....which reminded me of the VIDEO I saw and was inspired to make a card as well. Although I did not use a napkin, I did use this gorgeous photo my daughter took of the view from her front yard. Isn't it glorious?
And here is my card:
I used a wood mounted stamp by Rubber Stampede A2430F, which has 5 bare winter trees. I stamped the tree line twice in Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. Then twice again on acetate, which I then stamped onto the white card stock, upside down, lining it up under the first tree line, to mimic the reflection on what would become my water. I shaded several different colors of Distress Ink onto my scene, depicting sunset, sky, and water. And then began the FUN part! I covered the entire image in Versa Mark Ink and then covered that with Heat And Stick Powder, heated it all the way through and then sprinkled Dazzling Diamonds all over that. Heated that, to seal it all together! Both of those products are by Stampin' Up! and are incredible! The Dazzling Diamonds not only dazzle but they blind, it is THAT sparkly!!!
This card wasn't for any Challenge, I just sent it off to my Daughter and Future Son In Law so they could have it.....of course they 'got it' immediately! lol
As always thank you all so much for stopping by, I appreciate you doing so.
May you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving as well.....travel safely!
Oh and Happy 300th Post to me! ;)
Enjoy~~
