Stickletastic!

Happy Wednesday! Wow, the week is flying which is kinda good as I am off for 14 days after Friday - Whoo Hooo!

Today I am sharing a card I have made using Karen's Sweet Sunday Sketch 43. The card is also for this weeks Hero Arts Challenge of GLITTER! Oh how I love my Stickles at the moment it's so Stickletastic!


I really like using different sketches as it makes me use stamps I haven't used for a while! I bought a set of Hero Arts Christmas Sentiments last week & I broke them out today!


I stamped the Candy Cane Santa & sentiment with black pigment ink then embossed with Star Dust EP. The background on the green layer is stamped using the International Christmas Script from HA in Ranger Distress Embossing Ink & embossed with Star Dust EP also.


I coloured santa with Copics & added Stickles to his beard! I added to grosgrain ribbon & a felt snowflake with a glitter gem added to the centre of the snowflake! I really love how sparkly this card is!

{Ingredients}
CS: PTI Kraft, Pure Poppy & Ripe Avocado. SU! Whisper White
Ink: Colorbox Black Pigment Ink, Ranger Distress Embossing Ink
