OOHHH!! I love the way this More Color Monday challenge card turned out! Beautiful strong masculine colors with fabulous Glimmer sparkle!

Measurements:
BASE: Crumb Cake CS: 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″
scored at 4 1/4″, 4″ x 5 1/4″
Misty Moonlight CS: 2″ x 5 1/2″
Secret Sea CS: 3 3/4″ x 4 1/4″
Peaceful Garden Glimmer Paper: 1 3/4″ x 4″,
scrap for the stars
Basic White CS: scrap for die cut

Die cut the larger trees in the Secret Sea CS layer and the smaller trees out of the Misty Moonlight layer.

Place them on top of each other and adhere together.

Emboss the Crumb Cake layer in the Distressed Tile 3D embossing folder.
Place the die cut strips on the embossed layer and cut off the excess on the Misty Moonlight layer. Adhere the small Misty Moonlight pieces cut off on the outside under and slightly above the Secret Sea layer.
Adhere the die cuts to the embossing layer and adhere to the base card.
Adhere the Glimmer Paper layer to the bottom of the card slightly overlapping the tree die cut layer.
Color the light blue Traditional Sparkling Sequins with the brush tip of the Misty Moonlight Stampin’ Blends.
Cut the larger sentiment die cut from the Peaceful Gardens die set and stamp the sentiment from the Light & Wonder stamp set in Secret Sea ink. Adhere to the bottom of the card over the Glimmer layer and the bottom of the tree die cuts.

Place the colored sequins around the sentiment.

I finished the card by die cutting the triple star die in the Secret Sea Glimmer Paper – this Glimmer paper is so pretty and by placing the three stars in the sky above the trees there is sparkles on the bottom as well as the top of the card! It balances it out!

If you do not have some of our Glimmer paper it is one of those great accessories as far as paper goes – a little goes a long way to make your cards next level!

Now go and create some artwork of your very own – one stamp at a time!

Happy Stampin’
