Sparkly Love


Still feeling puny over here, so I've got to keep this short and sweet. I've got one last card featuring products from the January Artful Delight Card Kit. (The February Kit arrived yesterday and I all but drooled over the contents of that one too!)


I dry embossed the card base and die cut sentiment panel. There is a bit of May Arts silver ribbon (not in the kit) tucked behind the tuft of tulle that was stapled to a black banner. I added some silly string, as I like to call it, behind the sentiment panel to break up all the black. The chipboard letters had some silver glitter glue slathered all over them to change up the look.

    This is so very elegant! Love your use of the silly string. I assume you adhered it with dimensional adhesive.

    So classy! The bit of tulle and "silly string" keep it from being too straight-laced. Love that. :)
