I'll be teaching a set of Easter Cards as well as an Easter Lilies Mixed Media Acrylic Canvas. If you are in the Waxahachie, Texas area the last weekend of March, please join me...just call the shop to sign up. Thanks so much for stopping by.

Ranger Stickles Shine and Sparkle Card

Hello there everyone! Today, I have another card (the third one) that I made for the Ranger Ink booth at Creativation this year using a fan fav product in some new colors, Stickles. Oh how we love the sparkle and glitz that only Stickles can do! Hope you enjoy this short post.
I embossed a piece of Pewter Metallic Kraft Stock with the Dotted Bullseye Texture Fade from Tim Holtz Idea-ology and Sizzix, and all die cut the circle from his Stitched Circles Thinlets. Then I added adhesive strips to all the cardstock ready for matting... the embossed cardstock to Heavystock and then to a Black Cardstock Surfaces base from Ranger.
I filled in and outlined the circles and dots with the three colors of Stickles, and let that dry.
Using the Paper Doll, I adorned her with the same colors of Stickles. I selected the words I wanted from Tim's Clippings, and added those on top of Dina Wakley Washi Tape that was matted to more layered cardstock. Then I added more washi to the bottom of the card and layered on all my elements with more adhesive and foam tape. It is such a simple card to make.

Supplies:
-Ranger Surfaces Cardstock: Black
-Ranger Tim Holtz Distress Mixed Media Heavystock
-Tim Holtz Idea-ology Metallic Kraft Stock: Confections- Pewter 
-Sizzix Tim Holtz Alterations Texture Fade: Dotted Bullseye
