This week’s CCM Saturday Blog Hop theme is “All That Glistens”.  Can be cards with Glimmer Paper, Embossing, Metallic Paper, Wink of Stella…anything that gives a shimmer or shine!  That’s one of my favorite things about the holidays…can’t have too much!

PEACE TO YOU

It is hard to see from this first photo, but the church image actually is covered with Clear Embossing Powder, so it shimmers and shines, too!  See the last photo!

Stampin’ Details:

• The base is 4-1/4 x 11 Orchid Oasis cardstock, scored at 4-1/4 and folded.
• A 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Silver Metallic Foil was added on top.
• The 1-1/4 x 5-1/4 strip of Snowflake Specialty Vellum (iridescent!) was added towards the left side.
• A 1-1/4 x 4 piece of Orchid Oasis cardstock was embossed with the Wintery 3D Embossing Folder and added across the front.
• The Peace to You church image was stamped with Orchid Oasis Ink on Basic White and cut with the largest Stylish Shapes Circle.  TIP:  the image is slightly smaller than the circle, so use your Orchid Oasis Dark Stampin’ Blends to color in the white edges!  It blends perfectly!
• Cover the circle with Versamark on the front and add Clear Embossing Powder.  Heat until set and glossy!  Add to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
• Add three Adhesive-Backed Stars to the background for a little extra sparkle!

 

SOOO, I’ve shown you FOUR different ways to add sparkle to your card…silver foil, specialty iridescent vellum, clear embossing powder and iridescent stars!  Wow!  This card really glistens!  OK, next up on our blog hop is our Create with Connie and Mary website, then on to creative Mary Brown, or head backwards to see Melissa Davies’ fabulous project and see what everyone did with this challenge!
