The dies for this card came from Kokorosa and the sentiment stamp is from Divinity Designs. Card stock and glitter CS are from my stash. Due to the size of the die I decided a mini slimline would work best for this design.
I began by cutting all the pieces for the card using a red CS for the glass and hat and an old gold CS for the hat trim and the card base along with some scrap pieces for the belt etc. Once I had it all cut I assembled the glass and then added Nuvo Crystal to the entire piece including the hat. I left it to dry and while drying I put together the holly and berries and the belt to which I also added Sakura glaze to give it some texture. When everything was fully dry I added some white glaze here and there for definition and shading. Added the glass and hat to the glitter CS and then to the card front. It is quite sparkly in reality and very shiny too.
I’m quite pleased with the end result and am adding it the most magical time of year anything goes challenge.
Thanks for stopping by, it is appreciated.

Such a fun card design. The santa glass is really great and all of that shine….WOW!!!!

Thanks Gayle. It took forever to dry because I think I used a bit too much liquid.
