I used my VERY ancient but one of my favourite Christmas sets A Wish For Peace. I think the dove is beautiful and a real symbol of what Christmas is all about. I stamped my images in Island Indigo, then using my SAMJ I stamped directly over it with Versamark, sprinkled my Heat and Stick Powder, then sprinkled and heat set my Dazzling Diamonds glitter.
It's soooo hard to catch the shimmer and shine in the photo... but with the last two photos you can hopefully get an idea!
I was putting off taking these pictures because it is soooo dark outside today, but these will have to do! Sorry! It's been mostly very dark and dusky out there, so it won't get any better than this!
I had glitter absolutely everywhere, but see.... that's the thing I love about challenges... they seriously make you do stuff you wouldn't normally do (in a good way!) I don't think I've used glitter more than a handful of times in the last five years! It was in and on EVERYTHING! My girls have this book on CD from the library all about this young girl who goes to a birthday party held at 'Glitterati', and that is the only work I could think of to describe my desk (and me!) when I was done!
