This card is not my usual style...it's CAS in design but was a bit of a challenge to stamp. I couldn't have done it without a stamp positioner. I chose these ornamental trees for inspiration. The sparkly tulle looks cool on cards but it's a mess...I was dropping tons of glitter on my desk just by unwinding it! And if you're wondering...the gold ball is actually a swirly ball stamp from Rubbermoon and not necessarily meant as an ornament...lol. Sometimes you just have to see things in a different way ;)

Positioners are fab, aren't they??? I love the way you made a tree with those ornaments. Seems like a gold day, Polly.

Your card is very eye catching and cool looking!!! Don't you hate when you have an idea that seems like it would be simple, but is in fact very difficult if you are to do it right?!! I tend to like to eye ball things, but that can often get me in trouble. I love the tulle - even though it was a mess maker. You did a great job Polly!!

Hey, Polly, I totally agree with what Kim (luv flowers) said...and I admire you for sticking with the stamp positioner...I've never mastered that tool. I love how you brought forth your vision...it is such a cool work of art.
