Festive Wishes

Good Sunday morning all!  More glitter today!  I started by embossing white card using the Stylized Poinsettia embossing folder.  Next I cut the May Your Days Be Merry And Bright out of black card twice.  I stacked them together and added them to the backing piece cut in white.  Next I added dries clear glue to the insides of the bulbs.  I did all the dark blue first, then red, green and pink and sprinkled the holographic glitter into them and allowed it to dry.  I cut one more of the die out of a piece of card with a sticky adhesive sheet attached.  I nipped the wording out, then peeled away the backing paper and coated it with gold holographic glitter.  I glued it on to the original over the lettering.  The card was completed with white and black mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 6 1/2"  x  7 1/2"  in size.   All for now,  Sue x

Hi Sue.
How clever is that?. I really do wonder where you get all your ideas from. I just love the finished product but wont even try to copy it as it would take me forever I'm sure.
Thank you so much for sharing.
