May 8 Greeting Card
This is the Sat, May 8 project from Cherish The Thought. We had a choice of 4 different designs and I chose this one. The bird is a die cut with double sided tape on it cut to the various shapes for the different colours of glitter. A section of tape is removed and the colour of glitter added, then the next piece is removed and another colour of glitter is added until all of the bird is done. Next the blue background is embossed with a Tim Holtz embossing folder. The branch is cut with a Sizzex die. The tape on the card base is removed and I added black glitter to make the border. All this is added to the blue background which is then added to the base card.

Nice card!! Sounds like a lot of work with all the glitter and everything! I love the TH embossing!
Beautiful Joanne.
Love the way the embossing is only in the center portion. I also love doing that glitter technique. on the bird. It turned out really well.
Fabulous project.
Joanne, this is stunning and I know glitter are projects are even better in real life, so it must be really wonderful in person.
