More glittery images...

I shared some cards in this post that were made with images that were created by adhering outline stickers to glitter cardstock and then coloring with markers inside the outlines. I had a couple more of those images that I used for these cards:

I added a panel of DSP to the blue cardbase and then cut a fancy-edged rectangle from a piece of white cardstock. I glued the glittery image to the rectangle and stamped a sentiment below it.


The white panel was popped up with foam squares.











A simple sentiment was stamped on a white panel for the inside.









This image was my favorite and the card was made in the same way as the first one, except it has a top-fold, rather than a side-fold.


If you look closely at this picture, you can see a bit of the glitter.








I stamped two sentiments on the inside of this card.









For the next card, I started with a white cardbase and added a panel of DSP that was 1/4" narrower on each side. I finished the edges of the DSP with gold sticker strips.

The images for the first two cards had been given to me when I volunteered at the thrift store, which meant I hadn't colored them. I was itching to give this technique a try, so I pulled out some white glitter paper and a gold outline sticker of daisies that was in my stash. The glitter paper I used had super fine glitter embedded in it, so it wasn't particularly sparkly, but I thought it might work best for my daisy sticker which was rather old and could have lost some of its stickiness.


After applying the outline sticker, I colored the petals and the centers with alcohol markers. Then I fussy-cut the flowers, using a craft knife to cut out the spaces in the center. Once that was done, I popped them up on a white die-cut circle that I had adhered to my card front.

Lastly, I added a gold sentiment, which was also from a set of stickers.






I heat-embossed a sentiment on the inside and the card was done. 

I didn't like my colored daisies as well as the more colorful images that were given to me, but since these cards were all donated back to the thrift store, I figured there would eventually be a customer who would appreciate my efforts. 

Thanks so much for stopping by, and remember to laugh--a little or a lot--every day.
