Hello!
Hope you are well!
Well I seriously gave a go at mixed media (was very messy).......
This card is very sparkly IRL!
The background is 3 different gold Perfect Pearls, brushed on, sprayed with water....dried and wiped. I stamped Christmas words over the whole background with an Illuminate ink, which you can't see :( The snowflakes are stenciled with gelatos (look at me go)! The tree was assembled on gold, and sprayed with a platinum alcohol ink. Which turned the gold to silver in spots?! A piece of washi tape and sentiment. I will be sparkly from the Perfect Pearls for ever!!!!

This just made me want to go back to the card store in town, and pick up a Gelli press. It's on the list for Wednesday!
Now I'm going for a walk, my mom will go to Bingo, and I will clean up her little section that has 4 calendars on the go. Not all this year! I might even rake some leaves!
Talk to ya later!
Stay safe!

Messy is good Gail, I always find it rewarding and proof I've done something and this turned out really well. Enjoy your walk.
