Tearing and distressing is way out of my comfort zone, so that's why I had to have a go at todays CAS challenge!
After stamping the bauble I covered it with a piece of double sided sticky sheet and then punched it out. After removing the second side of the sticky sheet backing paper I rubbed the bauble in micro glass beads.
It doesn't show up that well on the photograph, but it really gives a 'glass' feel to the bauble.

Love the way you tore the edges - it's really nice being white on white which somehow makes the tearing more subtle. Also love the way you repeated the ribbon from the ornament on the background.

Hey, your distressed edges look wonderful! I LOVE the micro beading!!! Even if we can't see it perfectly, it still makes me want to go get some and try it!!! Your ribbon is so pretty too! Another very pretty Christmas card!

What a feast of texture! The juxtaposition of your crisp CS & the tearing is a wonderful effect, while the microbeading is a brilliant idea for this image. Beautiful color and ribbon choices too.
