Yuletide Sparkle

Hello!
Time for another card using the Bold Borders: Yuletide Die with lots of sparkle and the bling of foil!
I'm loving making multiple inked borders and keeping them handy until the idea strikes to use it for a card. For this background, I inked the panel with Distressed Oxide inks and then covered that over with Versamark Ink, adding a layer of glitter for a super sparkly look. The photo only shows a smattering of this, but IRL it covers the entire panel. 


I also layered inks to add shading to the die cut greenery. I adhered silver foil to the die cut sentiment which makes it stand out with SHINE as the focal point. 

I'm playing along with the Love of Layers Make It Monday Challenge at PTI. Hope you have a great day! 


Be yourself

Cindy, you have some scrumptiously beautiful dies to use for this type of card, and the background is gorgeous! Love the particular blue and green you used, and blended so smoothly. The idea of making backgrounds for future use like this is sounding mighty appealing to me. Just look what you did with it!

This is absolutely BEAUTIFUL Cindy!! I just love your color combination and it's blended so smoothly that the leaves look like they blend right into the background but yet there's the dimension that lifts them off...SOOO pretty! Love that gorgeous silver bow too! Lovely, lovely layered card!! :0)
