Sugar Nellie - New christmas stamp


Just had to try out one of my new Christmas Sugar Nellie stamps but wanted something a bit different so here is my effort. I used a card that was from a challenge blog I won not long ago. I covered the card with papers on the back fold and the front of the card was covered with distress inks and then used a glimmer stencil that I bought from ally pally and sprayed with glimmer mists. Click on piccie for a closer view. The image was coloured with copics and stickles. Added some new Prima flowers, another Ally Pally purchase. Got more WOF stamps in the post today along with more promarkers, felt I needed more colours in my collection. Got another card to blog but if I dont get it on here today will post tomorrow!

Wow Claire I just love this. I have a template for a teardrop card and have made a few, but never thought to turn it upside down .. until now! That might be an idea I'll be pinching.
