Merry & Bright

This is my last post of the day...I promise :-)   A friend told me about The Mixed Media Card Challenge so I thought I would give it a whirl with this card.  It gave me permission to be messy and play with some products I had not used yet!

For my non-traditional Christmas card, I used mixed media paper for the background.  I mixed Perfect Pearls with my Koi watercolors for a pearlized, watercolor background.  Once dry, I grabbed my Dotted Tree stencil (Hero Arts) and used Dreamweaver Glossy White Embossing Paste.  While it was still wet, I sprinkled very fine Fairy Dust Glitter (Donna Salazar) on the embossing paste.  The "Merry & Bright" die cuts (Sizzix) were added once everything had dried.

Thanks so much for stopping by!  I hope you have a fantastic weekend!
