For the Anything Goes challenge this week I was living the vida loca, ya, you guessed it, glitter!! I had glitter everywhere, my face, clothes, I think I even drank some in my coffee! The result was well worth it though because my poinsettias are covered in frosty goodness and ready for Christmas! I started out by embossing the background with a Merry Christmas folder and heat embossing the wonderful new ODBD Wisemen Ornament in black and water coloring it with soft blue re inker and a water pen, the ODBD Doily die is the perfect frame. Next I made a bunch of poinsettias with the new ODBD Peaceful Poinsettia dies and sponged them with soft blue ink while they were still in the die, next came the glitter explosion and I layered it all on the flourish and branches from the ODBD Fancy Foliage set and extra poinsettia leaves made from the flower die. I hadn't got enough of the glitter yet, so I put a few large pieces on the branches.
ODBD Stamps Used: Wisemen Ornament
ODBD Dies Used: Peaceful Poinsettia Dies, Fancy Foliage, Doily Dies
Other Supplies: Foam tape, glitter, embossing folder, heat embossing, re inkers, water pen.

ReplyDeleteDJ, I agree with Robin! Your poinsettias are gorgeous and so sparkly! And I just love this card with the beautiful wisemen ornament with the doily die behind along with the embossing! And you know how much I LOVE your beautiful "signature" ribbon, don't you? They finish off your cards so beautifully! (And did you get all the glitter off everything yet?
