Silent Night

Hope everyone is having a grand day today.  It is 110 degrees in sunny Arizona and I so miss the cold snowy weather of Michigan. So in honor of the upcoming Christmas season.  I made a festive card with Ching Chou Kuik's beautiful new stamp Scarlett Holly from Sweet Pea Stamps.  You can get this gorgeous image at 7kidscollegefund.com and sweetpeastamps.com

 

 

 

To start off my card I used heavy cardstock in white in roughly 5 1/8" X 7" measurements.

 

 

 

I then colored in my image using Copic markers.

 

 

 

 

 I also used We R Memory Keepers Sew Easy Ribbon in Red with the Leave it to Weaver EK Success craft punch to create the Ribbon border on the bottom of the card.

 

I then used Art Glitter Designer Dries Clear adhesive to set the ribbon.

 

I then cut out the frames for the image with SpellBinders Matting Basics both A & B and stamped the sentiment Silent Night by Hero Arts Rubber stamps.

 

Then the fun began......

 

I mixed Art Glitter's Faux Snow, Art Glitters Dazzler's line in Confection & Art Glittler's Ultrafine Transparent Glitter in Crystal and applied this mixture to the background of my card to make the illusion of frost for my card.

 

I then outlined the rest of the card in Art Glitter's True Red Ultrafine Opaque Glitter around the edges for some eye-popping bling. To get this neat of an edge you will want to use Art Glitter's Ultrafine Metal Tip and Designer Dries Clear Adhesive.
