Welcome to the latest Art With Heart Blog Share for the Heart Of Christmas. This week I have a card for you using the new Detailed Baubles Thinlits from the Holiday Catalogue.
Doesn't the bauble look great against the Wood Textures DSP? A bit of a country style Christmas. I wanted the bauble to look 3D, so I punched a 2 1/4" circle and sponged it with Shaded Spruce ink, making it darker around the edges and leaving it white in the middle.
I wanted a bit more sparkle (it is Christmas after all!), so I painted the die cut with some Champagne Mist Shimmer Paint. After it was dry and the two layers were glued together, I then misted the whole thing with some of the same paint mixed with Isocol. The final touch was adding some Black Rhinestones to the die cut. And talking about sparkle - how's that new Black Glittered Organdy Ribbon? Don't make the mistake of overlooking it because it's in the Halloween section like I did!
I used a second, smaller, die cut from the Detailed Baubles Thinlits set to complete the inside.
You can find the rest of this week's cards over at Claire's blog.
Bye for now,
