Sparkling Partridge in a Pear Tree

It's Monday! Time for another challenge from the Outlines Challenge Blog! This week the challenge is to "Make It Sparkle" by using metallic papers and Swarovski Crystals. Make sure you play along with us this week for your chance to win a $25 gift certificate from the Outlines Rubber Stamp Company.



For my project this week, I chose to ink up the gorgeous Outlines image of "Partridge" (I-989). I used Marvy Black dye ink to stamp the image onto Curious Metallics Cryogen cardstock. This particular paper has a subtle sparkle to it. I colored the image with Copic markers.

I applied Swarovski crystals (Clear Size 9 and Crystal AB Size 7) to the image. I also added some Crystal Stickles to the pears.

The image is framed with shimmery gold cardstock and patterned paper from Hot Off the Press. I sprayed the patterned paper with some Sparkle Sheer Shimmer Spritz from Tsukineko for some more faint sparkle. The image panel is raised with Pop Dots, and metallic gold ribbon complete the card.
