Time for a new spotlight challenge at Crafty Cardmakers and this week we're doing glitter & sparkle - a favourite of mine, so I had fun with this :o)
I've used one of my new LOTV stamps, I do love these bears and I really have to get some more of the Christmas ones, so cute! I've coloured him with promarkers and added extra shading with koh-i-noor pencils blended with sansador. Added sparkle to the image with glamour dust, although I realised too late that I forgot to add a little snow sparkle under his feet - I'll do that later! I've used nestie circles and nellie snellen frames to cut out and mount the image. The papers are MME (I need more of these, love them!) and are all sparkly, I've used shimmery blue & pink cardstock, and embossed one piece of the blue with a cuttlebug snowflake embossing folder. Added a computer generated sentiment and some punched snowflakes with pink stickles in the centres.
I'm also entering my card for the following challenges:
- Friday Sketchers - fab sketch
- Winter Wonderland - all I want for Christmas (hope there's crafty goodies in those parcels!)
- Paper Sundaes - Christmas in August
- Just Cute Bears - embossing
- Totally Gorjuss - Christmas in August
- Secret Crafter - make a start on Christmas
- CES Challenges - anything goes (first challenge)
- Lili of the Valley - dotty for circles
- Creative Card Crew - sparkle & shine
Gorgeous Lisa, and I know what you mean about those Lili of the valley stamps. Hugs Tracy x
