Big Bauble

I have a Christmas card to share today, featuring a big bauble stamp from a set by the Colorado Craft Company. I stamped it directly on to a burgundy card blank using Versamark Ink, along with a sentiment from the same set, then heat embossed it all using 'Diamond White' embossing glitter from WOW. You can't tell from the photo (why is glitter so difficult to photograph!?) but it's super sarkly in real life!

Challenges for this card:

• Crafty Hazelnut's Christmas - Anything Christmas Goes
• Simon Says Stamp (Wednesdays) - Anything Goes
• The Holly & the Ivy - Anything Christmas Goes
• Through the Craft Room Door - Anything Goes

'Add Some Metal'

 The prize is a $10 voucher to spend in the Stitchy Stamps Store!

The DT were all given Stitchy Stamps images to play with for this challenge...mine is called 'Resting on a Cloud', which I coloured using watercolour pencils. The brightly coloured papers are from the '72 & Sunny' pad by We R Memory Keepers...I distressed the edges a little, then added faux stitching using my CutterBee Bug and a white gel pen. The sentiment stamp is from the 'Sending Sunshine' set by Simon Says Stamp, the yellow twine is by October Afternoon, and the swirly heart charm is from Ebay.
