I just love sparkle! This Dazzling Christmas Card uses the Dazzling Diamonds Glitter to add a beautiful sparkle. I used the Rustic Retreat stamp set for a simple but eloquent background.
The Rustic Retreat stamp set was used for a simple background and the sentiment. I stayed with two shades of blue for a more monochromatic look to let the sparkle and the foil paper really stand out. A simple masking technique was used to layer the stamps for more dimension. The stitched rectangle dies add that extra little touch to the details of this card.
This card has a lot of detail but is still a fairly simple card to make. This card utilizes both the stitched rectangle dies and the layering circle dies. If you have not added these to your card making supplies I highly recommend them. They will become items that you reach for on a regular basis.

Your card is positively magnificent! I’m a Stampin’Up Demonstrator, so I appreciate beautiful card crafting. This one meets all of the criteria for layering, bling, and simplicity! Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for your kind comments. Glad to meet another demonstrator. I agree on the criteria for a great card although I would probably add dimensionals to my list as I seem to have a hard time making a card without using some!
