Naturals White card stock is perfect for any sponged scene because it's soft speckled surface gives a nice feeling of movement. I heat embossed the trees in white before masking off the ground and sponging the sky. Hmm, red sky in the morning... Get all those sheep in the barns you shepherds!
Can you see the speckled card stock really adds to that frosty feel? I used a mix of the Frosted Sequins and Basic Rhinestones to get the sparkle in my trees and I love how glittery they are!
The sentiment was stamped on a banner, heat embossed in silver and stapled onto the scene with my new favourite toy the Handheld Stapler - I love the size of the staples and have been using them on everything!
It was the 25th of the month yesterday and so I'll be joining Sarn at her Rudolph Day challenge with not one but two of my shiny cards as per the rules!
