I found a wonderful challenge site that does CAS Christmas Cards. Their challenge this month is Glitter.
I have a habit of buying Christmas tags when they go on sale or clearance. These tags usually make great focal points for Christmas cards. It also makes your Christmas card creating easier.
I love this sweet penguin. I trimmed him down and added a black mat behind the image. The background for my card is GLITTER card stock. It came in a 12 x 12 pack I bought last year. It is a very pretty sparkle on top of white. My picture does not do it justice.
I die cut the sentiment from some scrap black card stock. I glued it on with my Gina K Connect glue. Glue seems to work the best on glitter card stock. I tied on a red and white baker's twine bow to add a little more red to the card. The image was pop dotted to the front of the card.
Thanks for stopping by.
