Sparkly Fun Fridays -- Lots of gifts

Sparkly Fun Fridays features a sparkly or glittery project using shimmer paints, embossing powders, glitters, rhinestones... anything shiny to welcome the weekend in a fun way!!!


Hi everyone,

Today's card is VERY sparkly and was VERY messy, but soooo worth the mess.

(I have trouble lately with my camera settings, the color are not exactly right, the supernova glitter that looks red is actually orange in person, sorry about that.)

How did I do that... Sticky strip !!! I just positionned 2" strips of this very strong adhesive, then one color at a time peeled off the red backing and sprinkled some superfine supernova glitter and then tapped off the excess (THAT was messy). To cover the edge of those not-always-straight-strips, nothing works better than a large ribbon.

As for the gifts, I stamped twice the image , omitting the top gift once. I got this stamp for free with Sale-a-bration and it's very versatile because you can add as many gifts as you like.
I colored with only my prismacolor markers (no gamsol).


Have a nice stampin' day
