Good morning to you! I am writing this on Sunday and scheduling it as my gorgeous grandsons will be with me and I will be otherwise occupied!!
Today sees the start of a brand new challenge over at Lexi's Creations. The theme for this fortnight's challenge is Sparkle and Shine. I decided to go with a Christmas card!
The stamp is by Marianne Designs and I stamped in Versamark and added silver embossing powder. The die is a Marianne Craftables and I added some silver mirri card behind it for the shine! I used Pearl Centura Card it has such a lovely sheen. The border was made with my Spellbinders A2 Curved Borders - I love these! The poinsettia is a Marianne die with a pearl flower in the middle. The bow is made from clay in a sugarcraft mould and then painted with some Martha Stewart glittery acrylic - my sparkle!
Our sponsor this week is
Please go over to Lexi's Creations and see what the rest of the DT have done!
