Don't Look Closely.........

at this card!  It's not my best work, but I wanted to share the idea anyway!  We made this card Friday night at our card club meeting--the ladies' cards turned out MUCH better!  But, in my defense, I have been super sick--I tried this card about six times, and this was the best one of the six!!

To make the background, start with glossy white paper and the Blue Frost Spectrum Pad.  Use your brayer to roll on the ink.  Let dry completely, then stamp the trees in Basic Black ink.  Let dry completely again!  Remember, this is glossy paper, and it takes a few minutes for the ink to dry!  Then, using the two-way glue pen, "color" where you want your glitter.  I added it the ground for a snowy effect.  Apply the Dazzling Diamonds glitter, and shake off the excess.  I layered this on Basic Black cardstock, then the Silver metallic.  The card base is Brilliant Blue.  I stamped the sentiment (yes, it's crooked!!!) in Silver Encore ink!

It's really a striking card, if done better than I did!!! :-)

Have a great week!!!
