Todays card is for CAS-ual Fridays challenge blog and this week we are to add BLING to our Clean and Simple designs .
I don't often do bling on cards but definitely at Christmas time so I cracked open my new Waltzing Mouse stamps and got blinged up for Christmas 2011
These stamps are from the WMS set Teeny Trees and the sentiment is from Frame It .
I just subconsciously made a one layer card , perhaps because I made my OLW card yesterday too , but have to say I'm pleased with how it turned out .
I decided to ground the trees with some ' ink sponged ' snowy ground rather than a broken frame and then inked the edge of the card with the same colour .
I just 'blinged' one tree and the sentiment using a mixture of gems , stickles and glitter gel pen and then added frosted lace stickles ( my favourite colourway for snow ) to the ground .
Hey what do ya know I've made my first Christmas card too .
Why don't you hop over to CAS-ual Fridays and join in the fun too
I'm back tomorrow with a couple of cards I've made from my new Paper Smooches stamps .... they are gorgeous images to work with :)
Here's a sneak peak of one of them
