a little sparkle in your morning

-
A morning started with glitter has got to be a good day right? I just got this new stamp set and wheel in my latest shipment. The design is very different from anything I have ever owned before but I think I really like it. It is just a little funky. I have been meaning to try making one of these tent topper cards for a while now and this set seemed perfect for it.
What I used:
Seasonal Whimsy stamp set, Whimsy jumbo wheel
blue bayou, soft sky and whisper white card stock
blue bayou classic ink
versamarker and iridescent ice embossing powder
blue bayou double stitched grosgrain ribbon, white eyelets, ticket corner punch
When I had this card all laid out it looked a little bland so I whipped out my versamarker, iridescent ice embossing powder and heat tool and gave it a little sparkle!

I love your cards. I do have a question for you. I have seen these "tent topper" cards, and was wondering what the dimension was. I would love to make them. Thanks a lot. Glynda Moon moomoogm@yahoo.com
