Some years ago I bought some glitter flakes but until now I have never used them. They have just been sitting with my stash. After several failed attempts I managed to arrive at this image which uses silver flakes and an image stamped onto black card using a Sheena Douglas silver bells rubber stamp from the A Little Bit Festive range . I matted and layered it onto grey and white cards and then edged it with narrow silver ribbon adding a clear gem to three of the corners. The sentiment was from the same stamp set.
I would like to enter this into the following challenges:
Beccy's Place - holiday cards
Craty Catz - anything goes
Craftyhazelnut's Christmas - anything goes
Allsorts - anything goes with optional lace
CCC Digi Creations - Christmas is on it's way

Through The Craft Room Door - anything goes
A Perfect Time To Craft - anything goes
Well done for bringing out the glitter flakes Mary, better late than never! I still have things I've purchased from years ago that have never been opened... I really should use some of them. These days I try not to buy things I'm not going to use, but every now and then I still do.
ReplyDeleteYour black and white Christmas card is so elegant, I love the image of the beautiful bells. The silver ribbon looks fantastic around the edges of the image panel, what a great idea! Lovely.
Cheers,
Beccy
