Red, White, Sparkle, Bells
Oh boy did I have fun making this card! Down to the wire again for Lil' Inker Monthly Meetup & since Anything Goes I combined it with Merry Monday, Red & White. The Lil' Inker Cover Up Die was part of the prize package I won from PaperCrafts late last year. You can't really tell what it looks like, so decided it was time to find out. Isn't it great?!
I again reached for my Glitter Dust & then attached it to my favorite red textured cardstock (which is now almost gone, unfortunately) using Perfect Paper Adhesive. For embellishment I used ribbon, a snowflake button, 2 red jingle bells & tiny pearls with sequins. And yes, I am making mostly flat Christmas cards this year. It's a good thing I allowed myself 10% that aren't--LOL! I'm also entering SSS Wednesday as Glitter Dust is one of my favorite products (& so are pearls!) I used big scraps so will add this to The Playground. Still catching up on my blog reading & have to work the next couple days, but I'll see you soon.
This looks stunning...... I love that die. Xx
