On occasion something viewed on TV will inspire a card. This entry is one of them. We were watching a British Live Theatre performance with a Christmas theme and the backdrop was lit in such a way that I wondered if I could recreate it. Considering how fiddly this was to do, I’m surprised it worked. I took some thin silver cord and added to the the white base and then spent some time adding the sequins to the cord. It took forever but I do like the end result so it was worth the time. I used a GKD stamp from a small set called Noel and heat embossed it with Cosmic Shimmer Powder which I love. Added the panel to a red base and it fits the Sweet Stampin challenge of stripe or spots. Cord is the stripes and the sequins the spots and amazingly it is also a CAS card.
So clever to find inspiration from your show. The curtain of sequins with the embossed sentiment makes a wonderful CAS card.

It looks like it took quite a while to create, but the effect is very cool. It’s such fun that you got your inspiration from a theatre performance. That’s a very pretty red, too.
