Glittery & bright

The number of family members feeling under the weather has grown to include... all of us.  I still managed to crank out a card on the weekend that I haven't shared yet:


I used the hanging snowflakes image from "friendship jar: holiday fillers" and stamped them 3 times across my white mat in versamark ink.  I then heat-embossed them all in silver.  I colored each grouping, including the rhinestones, with a different blue-green copic marker.  The main image was matted onto a sheet of silver cardstock, and then to a white card-base.

The sentiment is from "in the meadow," and was stamped in black ink.

I'm linking this card to the CAS-ual Fridays challenge - I used their sketch for my card.

Thanks for looking!

    I'm so sorry you are all sick. That must be no fun. I remember when my girls were little, and they couldn't even blow their own noses when they were sick. I hope you all feel better soon. This is an absolutely wonderful card. I'm going to pin it to case.

    Hope you are ALL feeling better quick smart. This card is no reflection of the state of ill health in your house that is for sure. It is so merry and bright and joyously festive. The silver embossing is so wonderful, especially bejeweled with the crystals. Gorgeous!
