For my first card I used pink, turquoise and dark silver to make the tag.( I cut my tag shape when I got home using my SU tag punch). Poinsettia was stamped in black twice and then fussy cut to make the different layers. Again I finished at home using silver glitter glue. Pearls were from my stash. The sentiment is one of Julie's new dies. I cut the frame away from the wording to get the separate words.

For my second card I used light and dark silver and gold bronze to make the strip across the card. We were pretty much allowed to do our own thing for the pattern of laying down our strips so I went for making a herringbone design. The poinsettia was again stamped out twice and fussycut. I finished at home adding the silver glitter glue and the gems from my stash. Sentiment by Julie Hickey.

Fabulous, glittery cards, Mrs A, so pretty. The non-shed glitter card is so much easier to use than the sort that leaves glitter everywhere for days! There is to be a wide range of colours easily available too. xx
Two gorgeous cards Valery Anne.

I never thought of using glitter strips like this and both cards are beautiful. The poinsettia is gorgeous and looks so pretty with the tag. I love how you glittered around the sentiment on the second card.
Mrs A these are gorgeous! What a brilliant way to use glitter card - I love a bit of glitter at Christmas, but sometimes it can be too much. This is the perfect way to bring a bit of bling. Have a very happy week, Sue xx
