hi there,
Here is my card for the F4A today; leftovers. I have a jar of these little coloured stars and never use so today was the day. The main panel was done by inking my HA stamp with Goosebumps (it is a glue-like medium that can be used to stamp with). It gives such a great textural look so different then just embossing with eb powder. When dry, I took my Distress ink pad and rubbed it directly over the inked area and sprayed with water dto blend. I added it between a pierced border....easy to re-produce many.
thanks for looking,

This is so pretty, and I am intrigued with your technique using the glue-like medium. I have a glue pad that I have never used, perhaps that may give a similar effect. I will have to try. TFS!

Your snowflake panel certainly matches the frosty feel of the outside this morning! I really like the 'panel' effect you have going here with the colours. The pierced edges are a great touch. This is a lovely card!

Very pretty, Karen. I have to try the Goosebumps. I think I've seen it in my Jo Ann Stores. Your pierced border added a wonderful touch above the image.

So very nice. Your technique is so different, as is the name "goosebumps". I like your stars, I actually came across a bag of sequins and star sequins that were buried in my craft closet - I found them after I bought more!! tfs
