Glittery Tree

This card is for the Hero Arts October challenge (holiday theme) and for Stamping A to Z (G for Glossy Accents, H for Hero Arts, Heat Embossing).


The tree was gold embossed on a die cut and then coated with Glossy Accents and sprinkled with glitter. When dry, Distress Stain Antique linen was used to ink the cardstock around the tree and then the edges were sponged with Vintage Photo and Walnut Stain Distress Ink. The snowflakes on the background cardstock were also gold embossed. For snow, I used vellum embossing in a dot folder, layered in two layers and then Stickles was added to the edge. Here's a close up of the glitter:


Thanks so much for stopping by!!

  1. BAIE MOOI!!!

    Ek het nie geweet jy het 'n blog nie! het laas nog gedink, ek sien niks meer van jou nie, maar hier is jy!
    Nog dankie vir jou beriggie op my blog, ek het per ongeluk die hele berig weggegooi, dus jou reaksie is nou ook weg.
    Dus, wees nie verbaas daaroor nie, want ek het wel die beriggie teruggesit, maar jammer genoeg natuurlik nie die reaksies nie.
