ok, let's get onto my card!

I used the adorable Be Jolly stamp set from Create a Smile Stamps!

Tis the Season to be Jolly Card by Samantha Mann, Get Cracking on Christmas, Create a Smile Stamps, Distress Inks, Christmas, Cards, Card Making, Stencil, #createasmilestamps #createasmile #christmas #christmascard #christmascards #cardmaking #getcrackingonchristmas

so cute!
I colored the images with Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers and then fussy cut them out! I added some stickles to the highlighted areas, too!! because...sparkle!!
for the background, I used Distress Inks in Mowed Lawn and Twisted Citron to do a little ink blending. then I splattered some water and white acrylic paint on top!

once the background was dry, I used the Twinkle Stencil and some glittery embossing paste to add even more shine and sparkle!!

thanks so much for checking out my card!
