Mojo Monday 163...Christmas Blessings

Got my Christmasy Mojo Monday card done for the week! I found this great technique by Anna Wight using some stamp cleaner and glitter. Check out the card:



Here are a couple of close-ups:



And the glitter technique:



And here's the sketch I used:



I cut a piece of dp and spritzed it with stamp cleaner. I folded and wrinkled it up a bit and then sprayed it with Elmer's Craft Bond glue. I sprinkled some Course Crystal glitter on it and let it dry. I then tied some hemp around it and attached my tag, button and star for a cool effect.
Have a great night!
