I also made this card to participate in the ... Splitcoaststampers - TLC202 Tacky Glitter.
The Cute stamps I used on this card are both from High Hopes ....."Matchmakin' Maynard" and "Light My Fire" sentiment
The dragon is colored with prismacolor pencils (oms) and Twinkling H2o's.
The heart and dragon and sentiment are popped up on foam dimensionals.
The wings and little hearts are glittered.
I used redline tape and fine glitter for the glitter stripes on the bottom paper. This was so easy and the glitter stays on so nicely ...I know I will be using this fun technique again!
The heart is nestabilities.....I made holes in the the scallop edge using my Japanese hole punch.
I used a Martha Stewart punch for the border.
Paper: Georgia Pacific, bazzil, wild asparagus, Costco
Ink: versafine black, bashful blue
Accessories: nesties, ribbon, martha stewart punch, stitching, glitter, sakura glue pen, redline tape, Cuttlebug embossing folders - heart and swiss dot
