My Tim Holtz Poinsettia Layering Stencil using Golden
Glass Bead Glitter Gel...Gorgeous Shine!

I placed the Tim Holtz Poinsettia Layering Stencil over Canson Cold Press 140# paper
and attached with low tack purple masking tape.
  
Then the fun began...adding Golden Glass Bead Glitter Gel using a palette knife.
Wow...the glitter and shine is Stunning!

I let it dry over night.  Then trimmed the piece and added Gansai Tambi Gem Color
Yellow Gold to the flowers and painted the edges of a layer of SU Basic White 100#
cardstock to slip under the main image.

Stamped and heat embossed the Penny Black Holiday Snippets sentiment over a scrap
of more Yellow Gold painted cardstock.
Attached using Connect Glue.

Attached main image to SU Basic White 100# Card Base and Done!

I loved the results and happy to add to my Christmas stash:-)

****************

Since I had all my supplies out I stenciled another poinsettia card front using Strathmore
Mixed Media Tan 184lb paper. 

 I loved how the Golden Glass Bead Glitter Gel made the glittery poinsettias
look more tannish golden on the tan paper and on the white cardstock on the card above the
poinsettias were white:-)

I finished the 2nd card with Gamsai Gem Yellow Gold paints..just like the 1st card.
Added SU Real red cardstock for a very different look and added the same sentiment.

Two quick cards after designing and creating the Gel stenciled snowflakes!

We are so happy to be back creating on CAS Mix Up challenge.
We would love it if you joined the fun.

Love and hugs..

  3. Both cards are spectacular, they must be so sparkly in real life. I have not heard of glass bead glitter gel before. I imagine it is much better than just glass beads as they will be more controlled. I can't cope with the idea of glass beads escaping everywhere! If I am pushed I think I choose the first one as my favourite, the simple white and gold gives it class xx
