Glitz and Sparkle

I'm counting the days to the October holiday as I'm at the point in the term when all I want to do is lie down in a darkened room.  However, I managed to get my act together sufficiently to be able to make my DT card for our latest challenge at Christmas at Sweet Stampin' - our theme is Glitz and Sparkle.





I've neglected my Lili of the Valley stamps for too long so I felt it was only right and proper to bring out this little beauty - I really do love the older stamps and never tire of colouring these images.  I added some  Magnolia paper behind the image, cutting each of the layers with a Go Kreate die.  I used both bright white and soft white glitter on the image for my sparkle and created some baubles for the tree with a red glitter pen.  I don't know whether it really shows up in the photo, but I put some clear Wink of Stella on her skirt - it looks so pretty irl!

Hope you can get your glitter out and join us at CaSS this month!  You can check out the challenge details and the DT makes right here.

Have a fabulous week!
