We also have a wonderful Guest Designer joining us this month. Welcome Michelle (Seashell Creations)!
I find that glitter pastes are one of the sparkliest products. And then I discovered the sparkliest of sparkle with the paste used on the above card. It's made by Cosmic Shimmer and is called "Silver Chrome". Not only is it filled with glitter, but it has chunky glitter as well that reflects light to make it extra special. Love it!
I used it through a new stencil I bought from Magenta. This is such a beautiful branch and berry image and looks spectacular with the chunky glitter paste on black card stock.
I stamped my sentiment in Versamark, heat embossed in silver and then stamped and heat embossed again over top with Silver Tinsel embossing paste. Hard to see in the photo, but the sentiment has lots of sparkle as well. :)

You completely nailed it, Loll! Goooootgeous card. Super sparkly and stunning against the black. I ordered that glitter paste a month ago from SSS when you sent me the link, and no surprise, I didn’t receive it in time. Maybe for my reminder card. *lol*😂 xx
ReplyDeleteSpectacular, Loll! The awesome sparkle and shine puts me in mind of diamonds set in a velvet lined jewllery box ... so beautiful ... so dramatic! Hugs, Anita :)
ReplyDeleteWOW! This looks sooo sparkly, and stylish too xx
ReplyDeleteOMG Loll, that glittery sparkle is off the scale and I love the extra chunky look. Such a stylish card :)
ReplyDeleteWow! That definitely have some brilliant sparkle Loll and I love it. Haven't seen this embossing paste before but it is very shiny and made such a beautiful Christmas card using that beautiful stencil. The black card base was perfect to showcase it, I can't even imagine how beautiful it looks in person. Hugs, Brenda
