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:
