light grey CS take the oval from Filigree set and draw a line around the outer
side and cut out with scissors. With this same oval, center the largest oval
die from the Classic Oval Sm set and cut out, this gives a picture frame mat

Ready to glue Filigree frame with picture to card. Add a rhinestone in center
of star and use Stickles on the star burst. Place pearls in corners and sides.
Adhere a string of pearls around the frame using the 3-D Crystal Lacquer, this
acts as a great achieve for gluing pearls and dries fast. Next ink up

large, 1 medium and 1 small all on blue CS. Distress the poinsettia leaves,
blue and green. Next with the paper blossoms tools, shape all the leaves. With

some Gala Glitz - White to the leaves for a sparkly crystal affect and adhere flowers together.

Linda, this is nothing less than breathtaking!!!!! I love what you did to the side, beautiful!!!!
ReplyDeleteI just love this card. The color palette grabs me right away, but the thing I love the most is the way your flower is an echo of the beautiful star in the focal image. The way you built that glorious "tail" of fibers and pearls is inspired. So gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteLinda, this is just gorgeous! I have never heard of fun fur before, but it sure looks elegant on your card. And your poinsettia- the way you have colored is is perfection! Love it!
ReplyDeleteI love everything about this! I could go on and on about the color combination, the beautiful flowers, or the fun fur.....just an amazing card!
ReplyDeleteThis is AMAZING. I could just stare at it all day.
ReplyDeleteMy goodness, this card is just stunning! I love your use of fibers to hang beneath the flower. Beautiful!
