Let Sparks Fly!

The latest challenge from the Purple Team over at Eclectic Ellapu is "Let Sparks Fly", and you have the whole of November to enter something to fit this challenge.



As I have just started making Christmas cards, I thought I should continue in the theme, and make something that both fit the theme and added to the collection. I have another new bundle from SU called Star of Light so cutting out intricate star dies never got easier.


I cut two stars and glued the more intricate and sparkly one onto the other blank
I then took my sheet of Kaiser paper and randomly (yes, me doing random!) stamped some blue stars 
Then I stamped and embossed some cosmic swirls in Egyptian Gold EP


The sentiment was embossed in black because I didn't think the plain ink would stand out on the gold card - the words are very clear for a polymer stamp. 


I mounted the paper onto gold card and then onto a cream blank
All the photo's above were taken in sunlight but the faded the colours so I took another one in shade


This is a better indication of the colour of the paper. but you loose the sparkle effect - it really is quite sparkly!
