I stumbled upon Kerry's blog where she is offering a nice little BG pad for playing her very own birthday challenge: a birthday card in the color purple, with glitter! I had just been thinking how neglected my glitter stash had been, so I decided to give it a whirl:
I incorporated the Mojo Monday 79 sketch into my card as well:
I went back to Sage Shadow as my base with Almost Amethyst and black for the panel. It's hard to see, but the AA is stamped with Linen. For the glitter, I edged a Lovely Lilac mat with strips of Sticky Strip, then deluged it with some MS glitter! My upline calls this the "marquis" technique--maybe it's too glam for this sedate image--but I thought it was pretty! My base was also stamped with Tres Chic and the sentiment is an old Verve's Wonderful Wishes.
- Stamps: Friends 24-7, Tres Chic, Linen, Wonderful Wishes, Verve
- Paper: Sage Shadow, Almost Amethyst, Basic Black, Lovely Lilac, Watercolor
- Ink: Stazon, Sage Shadow, Garden Green, Sahara Sand, Almost Amethyst, Lovely Lilac
- Acc: MS Eyelet Punch, MS glitter, Organdy & Grosgrain ribbons, Sticky Strip, Aquapainter

Great card, I like the color combination and the glitter :)
The only thing I do with my xtra fine glitter is tip the bottles and say "Oooooooh", and they are FIVE YEARS OLD.
