For today’s project, I’m playing along with Paper Player’s Tic Tac Toe challenge. I thought it would be a good opportunity to use my favorite sequins, the Iridescent Assortment. They are beautiful, shiny, pastel colors in varying sizes.
Merry Christmas Glimmer
I chose the right, row, down: green-any embossing-sequins/glitter.
To go with my glittery sequins, I chose a piece of shimmery, Mint Macaron, Frosted Floral Designer Series Paper. I trimmed it to size, and bordered it with Soft Sea Foam cardstock. Then, I cut the word “Christmas ” from the Merry Christmas die set, and glued it at an angle on the DSP. Isn’t it pretty in Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer Paper? You’ll find the word “Christmas” in the Merry Christmas die set.
The two sprigs (duplicated in the DSP) were cut with a Frosted Bouquet die; one in Soft Sea Foam, and the other in Mint Macaron.
The card base is Thick Whisper White cardstock with a layer of regular weight Whisper White, embossed by the Woodland embossing folder.
The word “Merry” is in the Merry Christmas to All stamp set, which I stamped in Mint Macaron ink on Whisper White cardstock. I cut it with a label die in the Merry Christmas die set. The two sets can be ordered in a bundle, which gives you a 10% savings.
Last, but not least, I placed just six beautiful sequins. I know, it looks like more, because they are spilled in the background. They are so pretty, I couldn’t help myself!
