Ok, enough of that! Here is Pam's sketch for 365 Cards Sketchy Sunday.
I took some major liberties with this baby! But...sometimes you get an idea and have to run with it! I need all of you to sit down before you peek at this card, however...because...I used LOOSE GLITTER! GASP! You know I must have been under the influence of medication....or some of Pam's "special" coffee!
I started out with this glittery piece of Best Creation paper - they make all sorts of Christian-inspired paper. I love the glittery poinsettias on this paper. So I added glitter to the sentiment by dipping the edges of the paper in glue, then pouring on the loose glitter. I did the same for the flowers...brushed a thin coat of glue and poured on glitter. Oh yeah. I had glitter EVERYWHERE!
The brad is pre-glittery...Doodlebug I think. I've had bad luck getting glitter to stick to brads. I have better luck with the glittery embossing powder.
The cute image is Close to My Heart. I colored it with Stampin' Up markers. I edged the circle with brown and blue chalk in. I love my Nesties. I use them for almost every card. I'd "die" without them. Get it?! Snort giggle.This card is also for the Play Date Cafe color challenge: blue, gold, cream.
Check back tomorrow for my Monday challenge. It was a hard one! I was pretty sticky when I finished....
Well done! I love it when you check your borders of creativity.... using that loose glitter was something, right? I had it when I made my card of blue and gold.... glitter all over the place, cloth, table, everywhere...
ReplyDeleteIt reminds me how I hate the sand all over when we go to the seaside...LOL
Your card is beautiful! I'm glad you preformed some rebel crafting here! Looking at the sketch, it feels in my bones to cheat here a little....if you understand me...
I love the way you colored the image. and you know I "die" for those flowers! please remember to add some of them to the choclate you put in my gift bag... LOL
