 I regretted not having the pie lane swrils. But planning to get them soon.

..had a very shiny nose!

This post is in continuation with my earlier one..Rudolf, the red nose reindeer..and so is the heading.
Here is the second card I made using the pie lane Rudolf sticker -

Supplies - Rudolf sticker - pie lane, pie lane Pixie dust, pie lane glitter balls, Gems from stash, star and sentiment bought locally in Singapore.
To make the christmas tree, I cut a triangle and drew flourishes with pencil.Then I loaded it with white pixie dust. With the white pixie dust, you can see the pencil flourishes beneath. Then I picked pie lane glitter ball one by one and stuck them on the flourishes..Phew!! That was tedious..but worth it :). The picture doesn't do justice..This card..rather all glittery cards look much better in person. But still...here's a close up -

Now you can imagine..how obsessed I am with glitter ..and how glittery my craft table must be :D.

Rudolf, the red nose reindeer...

Hello! Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas :)..I had a nice peaceful weekend after a long time and I managed to make 2 cards. Here's one specially for the pie lane challenge -

Supplies - Rudolf sticker - pie lane, pie lane Pixie dust, Gems from stash, stars and sentiment bought locally in Singapore.

Isn't the rudolf sticker cute? The sticker pack from pielane has 3 cute reindeers..
The Christmas tree is hand drawn and then loaded with pixie dust. Honestly, I wasn't into glitter much..I had gold and silver MS glitter since 3 years ..but hardly used it...Then when I saw the various shades that come in the pielane pixie dust box, I got obsessed :). Special thanks to Tejal for the wonderful pixie dust tutorial. Your tutorials rock!
And Here's a close up of the tree-

Will be back with another rudolf card soon!

Merry Christmas!!

Here's a Christmas card..made keeping 2 challenges in mind. Pielane - glittery basics and ICRC13 - Christmas card with non traditional colours.

Details : The main image is a free digi coloured using Steadler water colour pencils and then selectively loaded with pielane pixie dust. The outer dark blue paper is originally a white one...again overloaded with fine pielane pixie dust. The sentiment is a sticker.

Some more glittery cards to follow...until I overcome my new obsession with pixie dust :)
