Oh my, but Christmas is fast approaching!! I must get down to business and get a proper start on the 60 or so cards I need to make!

As you can see, a fairly simple card. I think the mittens are super cute!

Embossing folder: Couture Creations Wild Holly
Other: Bella Blvd designer paper, Bazzill Gold glossy cardstock & other, Liquid Applique (for mitten tops), gem, Glitter Ritz cool highlight glitter.

A little Merry

I had a few minutes over the weekend to do some Christmas card playing. This is a glittery card and as usual looks better in person.
This card was done with a Penny Black stamp called Starlite. I used clear drying glue with a metal glue tip to apply tiny drops of glue over the image then used Glitter Ritz champagne and fire red glitter over the glue. I added a Memory Box star of wonder die to the top of the tree and a Memory Box Merry die to the bottom, matted the image with American Craft red glitter cardstock then mounted everything to my main card. Yeah, a fairly quick card provided you have time to wait for the glue to dry! Who knew I would have job where I watch glue dry?? LOL
Have a great day everyone!
