The sketch that I used for my card this week is from the challenge at The Pixie Cottage. I created my card base using the colors mauve ice and vintage pink. I split the card diaganally using these two colors and backed them in brandywine. I then added tourmaline fine glitter from Martha Stewart Crafts to the brandywine cardstock which created the edging of my card. I then punched a strip of brandy wine cardstock using a starry night border punch from EK Success. I colored the image using crayola and prisma colored pencils and backed it in brandywine cardstock. I also backed the sentiment in the brandywine cardstock. I added more of the tourmaline fine glitter to the brandywine cardstock around the image and sentiment and to the outfit and hairpiece on the image. I punched 3 stars out of brandywine cardstock using a star punch from EK Success and added them to the left side of the image. I used 3 of the smaller stars from punching out the border and added them to the bottom left corner of the card. I then added more of the tourmaline glitter to all six stars.
This is the first time that I have used the fine glitter from Martha Stewart Crafts. But I saw it yesterday at AC Moore and decided that I wanted to try it out. So this fits right into the following challenges:
Ann's Creative Nook: Use Something New
Pile It On: Brand Spankin New
Paper Sundaes: Something New
Creative Inspirations: Use Something New
The Creative Cottage: Something New
