FTTC #92 Glitter?

Hi there! My card today has given me SO much trouble trying to get a good picture!! I finally gave up last night and tried this morning, well this is as good as it get folks:) Some of  you already know I don't own any glitter and really don't like messing with it so I used Glimmer Mist instead.

It is time for Flourishes Timeless Tuesday Challenge (FTTC92)! This week Barbara Anders is the challenge host! Barbara is challenging us to use glitter! You can use actual glitter, glittered cardstock, or items ready made with glitter! So, give your cards or projects just a touch or go all out with some sparkle!! We would love to see what you create.

Here's my card. Thanks Barbara for the fun challenge:)

 

I wanted to share with you how I colored this gorgeous Poinsettia and Boxwood Stamp Set . I stamped two of the poinsettia's with Tuxedo Black ink. I cut them out and sprayed them with the Glimmer Mist. I used a heat tool to dry it. I then took some chalk and colored over the glimmer Mist. For the center I used a Copic marker.  On the bottom flower I cut the petals apart and shaped them I then added the top flower slightly off center on top. I did not use pop dots just tape:) The designer paper is called Deck The Halls.

Thanks so much for stopping by! Drop by the FOF blogs to see all their gorgeous cards!!

Beautifully done Dee! I was working on a card that needed only a tiny bit of glitter in one spot, but as we all know once you get the glitter out there is no such thing as a tiny bit! The glitter ended up being alot more of my card than I had intended!

I remember that you don't like glitter but, hey, you rose to the challenge and made a glimmery card, and it's beautiful! When I click for a close up I can see the sheen. Gorgeous card, Dee!
