inky paws challenge - add a little sparkle!

hello!
today kicks off the new Inky Paws Challenge on the Newton's Nook blog!! :) 
this time, it's all about adding a little sparkle!

oh yeah! LOVE that photo!!
i decided to go the Christmas route with my card, and i'm totally liking the result! :)

man,i really wish i had some big, chunky gold glitter!! this card was BEGGING for some! alas, it was not meant to me! :)
i used the new Holiday Hounds stamp set and coloring the little sweater pup with copics and then colored the sweater again and popped it up. i don't know why...but i did! i like it! ha! 

to add some sparkle i used gold glitter tape to the bottom and top of the base of the card! those snowflakes were die cut from some incredible silver foil paper - SO FUN!! 

ok, now it's your turn! what is your favorite way to add sparkle to your cards? i must confess, usually i use wink of stella, but i was trying something else this time! ha!
i can't wait to see what you create! :)
enjoy!
