2018BLITZ5 Purple sky

Photo Details

Poster: JRHolbrook

I made this card for the Holiday Blitz #5.

I used the Shaving Cream Sparkle technique to create the bg using Hydrangea. Stamped dots and stars with same ink and then VersaMark, silver embossing with same stamps.

I used VersaMark and black embossing powder on the trees. I added a star brad to "oh christmas tree" phase and popped it up.

I layered scene onto holographic paper and black.
