Sparkle Christmas Card with Nancy Nickel

Hello, everyone! It's Nancy here with a new project share.

I've glittered up some fabulous chipboard pieces,

to create a very sparkly Christmas card.

Here's my card:

Here's what I used:

When I cut out the chipboard "Sparkle",

 I left a little stem under the "a".

I also left a stem at the top of the ornament piece.

I then connected the two stems, 

so it looks like the ornament is hanging off of the word.

I began with adding some glue to the chipboard ornament,

in all the areas that I wanted to have green.

A skinny glue tip makes it so easy to add to the intricate areas.

I the shook green glitter very generously over the glued areas.

I then used tweezers to pick it up, turn it over, 

and shake off all the excess glitter. 

I then repeated the same process for the red glitter,

and then the white glitter.

I then set these pieces aside to dry.

I then cut an A2 size card base from white cardstock.

I cut the decorative paper 4" x 5 1/4".

I inked the edge of the paper, and adhered in place.

Once they were all dry,

I adhered the glittered pieces to the card front.

When I was all finished my project,

I used the Perfect Cleaning Cloth to wipe up all the glitter.

Here's one last look at the finished card:
