Hello. Thank you for visiting my blog today. I am here as part of the Monthly Themed Hop. The theme for this month of December is Snowmen and Sparkle.
I created a card using glitter and a snowman. I used the Catherine Pooler Stamp "Build A Snowman." I created YouTube Video demonstrating how to apply glitter to a card panel:
To create this card, I used Tumbled Glass distress ink and a domed sponge dauber to create snow drifts at the bottom of my card. I also used the dauber to ink the edges of the panel. I stamped the images and sentiment using Versafine Clair Nocturne Ink.
For the blue snowflakes (stamps from the stamp set) I used Something Borrowed (blue) ink by Catherine Pooler Ink.
The photos above and below are of the card when it was completed (with glitter). I hope the camera was able to capture some of the sparkle!
Thank you for visiting my blog today. Thanks to the ladies who organized the blog hop. It was a six month blog and video hop aimed at using up supplies that we have "squirreled" away in our stash. Each month was a different theme.

WOW!! Amazing card Tracy! Its so perfect for our final hop! We are so grateful for your participation in our hop and your inspiring designs!
ReplyDeleteThanks and Thank you Anna for being an organizer of this fun collab!
DeleteSuper cute and so sparkly!!! I almost threw out all my loose glitter last night when I added some to my card and it went everywhere. I even made sure the fan was off but just having the heat running was enough to send it far and wide! I'm still sparkling today 😁 That said, I haven't done this card front technique in forever so I should save some glitter to do that! Maybe I should schedule a glitter day and just use it all up on backgrounds! Maybe outside on a warm day so I don't create a glitter bomb in the craftroom! LOL

DeleteOooooo, I love the look of the glitter covering the whole card front! That definitely covers the "sparkle" aspect of the challenge! I love the little scene you created also. Thanks for hopping along with us these past months! :)
