This fortnight the Jingle Belles have challenged us to make glittery/metallic creations. I've got a little of both here, though you might not see the entire sparkle of it. The outside frame is some silver metallic paper that looks like it's been hammered. Onto that I added a frame of royal blue glitter paper (which doesn't shed too much glitter thank goodness - don't you just hate when that happens!). The bells are die cut from silver metallic paper and I laid them over a piece of watercolor paper that I had been experimenting with Colorburst powders on. IRL it has a real 3-D kind of effect of the sky beyond those bells.
I'm still mulling over whether to add a sentiment to the front, and if I did, what would it be?
I don't know if I'll get to a second card before the challenge runs out, but I will try. I have several ideas that I'm going to write down in case time becomes a factor because I'm sure I will forget if I don't.
