The theme is
always Anything Goes using Loose Glitter, Embossing Powder, and/or
Flock.
I
have a real preference for more spiritual cards at Christmas time so I was
excited to use the new 3 Wise Men set. I
used the digital set and, after printing, colored it with Copic markers and
cut it out. Using a glue pen, I added Blue Haze Velvet glitter to the Wise Man on
the left, Daisy Velvet glitter to the one in the
middle, and Fairytale Lavender glitter to the one on the right. I also added Aztec Gold glitter to each of the
gifts.
They
were layered on a darker purple layer that was embossed with an embossing
folder and added to a slightly lighter layer.
Both were die cut with Spellbinders’ Radiant
Rectangles. I ran a
little Dimensional Glue around the edge of the
first layer and added more Fairytale Lavender glitter. All of this was added to a piece of sticker paper and Bridal glitter was added to the remaining
exposed adhesive. I love the rich look
of this glitter. After another purple
layer, all was added to a white card base.
The
sentiment was die cut with a Spellbinders’ Back to Basics Tags die and sponged
with Memento ink before removing from the die.
Using the Bling Your Brads technique, I added Yellow Spark embossing powder to two
star brads, along with the fussy cut star image. After adding the brads to both sides of the
sentiment, it was popped up at the bottom of the image and the star was popped
up at the top.
We hope you enjoy the New Reveal Blog Hop as much as
we have enjoyed creating new projects for it. We also hope that we have
inspired you as well. Thanks for joining us and remember to comment on
each of the Designers' blogs to be eligible for the Grand Prize. (We love
reading them too since your comments also inspire us.) Last month the
winning comment came from Eret's blog. Who will be the Mystery Designer
this month??
The next stop on our
blog hop is Ani.
Enjoy!

What a lovely brightly colored card for Christmas Marie. Love what you did with the robes, with the added sparkly touches. Super job.
Wonderful card and I love the glittery accents on the Wise Men. Love the embossed center mat too.
These colors are so rich. The glitters are perfect, and I love the layers that you added, and the line framing in glitter around the embossed purple cardstock. Absolutely stunning!
Beautiful colors! I love your pop of glitter - fantastic!
Looks like we have to get busy! The cards are very beautiful, ihope mine turn out as gorgeous and rich looking as yours
BEAUTIFUL card Marie!!!
LOVE the splash of SPARKLE you have added to the 3 Wisemen, LOVE how you have framed them and the texture of the background too!!!
The 3 Wise men are awesome and the purple background is perfect. Purple is royalty :)
The coloring is great.
It is time to start thinking about Christmas cards.

Beautiful colors for the Wise Men - the sentiment is perfect also.
Great job.

I'm with you, I too prefer a spiritual card at Christmas. You have done this one justice. I love the colors and the right touch of glitter. Beautiful card!
Fabulous card, Marie. I love all the added glitter on the wise men. Your coloring is striking. Love those blinged brads too.
Love the coloring of this card. Not your typical red/green Christmas colors.
How absolutely elegant! I love your coloring and the scrolled frame you've added this gorgeous image to - such a wonderful sentiment to remember, all through the year! I love your use of lavender - so unexpected and it really makes your card image pop! TFS!
A lovely bright card.
Thanks for playing with us at Craft your Passion.
Good luck and hope we see you again.
