Pearly Sparkles November Challenge ~ Add Some Sparkle and Shine

Hi Crafty Friends,
Here's another Christmas card for the Pearly Sparkles "Add Some Sparkle and Shine" November challenge.

This amazing bow/ribbon die set is from Jaded Blossom. I die cut the pieces using foil and glitter papers. There are several choices for the tail lengths as well as bow layering options.  I think this will be a "go-to" die set!!  I've also used JB's fun new Trendy Christmas Tree stencil with Distress Texture Paste in Sparkles and a sentiment from their new A Gift for You sentiment set.  These products made for a quick yet stunning holiday card.

Cut it Up Challenge #318 ~ Sparkle and Shin

Hi Crafty Friends,
The holiday season is upon us and our neighborhoods are starting to show their sparkles and shiny lights.So, what better theme for Cut it Up challenge #318 than SPARKLE AND SHINE.
There are so many ways to add sparkle and/or shine to your projects.  I'm sharing a few on my design team project.

I've created a shaker card using some fun sparkles for inside the shaker.  I added more sparkle to the pinecone and holly berries using Wink of Stella.  For the shine I used gold mirror card stock and added gold ink to the Altenew Rustic Burlap Press Plate.  Finally, the acetate shaker window definitely shines.  

I colored the Betterpress Magic of Christmas frame image using Copic markers .  The shapes were created using Pinkfresh Studio's Nested Arches dies and the corner embellishment was made from dies from Spellbinders Make it Merry Florals.

I hope you'll play along with our challenge.  You may link your project HERE.
