Now for the deets on my card, I used the Blowing snowflake Tree along with the greeting A Little sparkle
I started with a Bermuda Bay card base and a white panel. First I used some Hero arts white sparkle embossing powder to emboss the tree. Next I used painters tape to mask off sections of my panel and brayered each color separately moving the tape as I went, to mask off the section I just completed. I had taken a picture of this step but deleted it by accident. You can see in the picture below all my supplies. The distress ink colors I used are Blueprint Sketch, Peacock Feathers and Cracked Pistachio.
After I got all the colors brayered on for my background, I used the MISTI to stamp the greeting in black so it would contrast against the colors. As I was putting the card together I decided to finish it by adding a panel of white glimmer paper to give it more sparkle.
