‘O Holy Night’…looking at this card IRL takes me right to the true meaning of Christmas! I love this Nativity Collection from Magnolia Rubber Stamps! Edwin the Wiseman is colored with Distress markers on Canson watercolor paper and has a sparkly coat and crown from the Wink of Stella Clear Brush Glitter marker. I love the Star of Wonder Memory Box dies cut from the Silver Coredinations glitter card-stock too!

Here’s a close up of Edwin…

Magnolia, Tilda’s Town Challenges…

August 23, 2013 Pam Sparks10 Comments

The challenge at Tilda’s Town this week is Christmas! I got it into my head to go for CAS… well… it’s pretty IRL but oh my… so hard to capture shiny, shimmery, gold and glitter on camera!

I colored with Copics… G20’s, R30’s, YR21’s and a metallic silver gel pen.

Put the double sided tape sheet over it and used the Art Glittering system’s diamond dust glitter all over it.

I used the Jingle Jangle Tangle stamp and A Merry Christmas Text stamp from Magnolia, available at Tilda’s Town.com . I heat embossed the sentiment with gold ultra fine embossing powder.

Cut the layers with my Perfect Layers Rulers… LOVE them… link over in the right sidebar and tutorial under the header…pull down under tutorials.
