All the Sparkles!

Hey y'all, happy Friday!  I got a slow start today, I had to call and make several appointments and I really, really hate calling people on the phone.  So I procrastinated a lot and finally just sucked it up and got it done, then went up to my craft room...and kinda stared at everything for a bit, wondering what to do.  And then, THEN, I put on some Christmas music, ate some chocolate (my stamping muse is a picky wench but she is happy to be bribed with chocolate), and actually made a few things I like!

So here is what just might be the sparkliest card I've ever made.

It's a triple challenge card.  First up is Just Add Ink:


I used a tree and lots and lots of sparkle.  Check out this week's Freshly Made Sketch:


And the Color Throwdown:


I used Blushing Bride, silver sparkles, Shaded Spruce, Whisper White, and some Basic Gray.  I knew I was going to combine the sketch and colors (don't I always combine those challenges?) but I hadn't decided for sure what exactly to do until the JAI challenge tied it all together.  Whee!

Okay, I've got about an hour before Ryan gets off the bus, so I'm going to try to be productive to make up for my morning procrastination.  Cheers!

Supplies, all SU!
Stamps:  Ringed with Nature, Trees for Sale, Framed & Festive
Ink:  Basic Gray, Blushing Bride, Shaded Spruce
Paper:  Thick Basic White, silver glimmer paper
