There are those stamp sets that you look at for days, then months and even years that you love but you think I really don't need another Christmas stamp set but you love it so you finally break down and purchase it and of course you love it and think, I should have bought this years ago. That is what Stampin' Up! stamp set Big on Christmas is for me, one of those stamp sets I should have purchased years ago.
This card was copied from someone, I wish I could remember who. I just changed it up a bit to meet my needs. The Happy Holidays is one stamp so I used a marker to ink the holidays and then used my Black Stazon upside down to ink the rest of the design. Stamp quick so it does not dry. I then watercolored the tree with an aqua painter and the ink in the lids of my ink pads. The H P P Y is colored with a 2-way glue pen and then sprinkled with dazzling diamonds glitter. I had to use glitter because the paper have stripes of red glitter and the sparkle had to match. Add a small white border below the striped designer papers and glue to garden green cardstock and add a bow.
This is BEAUTIFUL!
