CAS Christmas August ~ Glitter

 This glittery snowflake card is for the CAS Christmas August Challenge.
You can probably tell I have loved playing with the NUVO glimmer paste (moonstone color).
I followed the directions for this technique from HERE.  I used about three colors of copics to shade my paper before adding the glimmer paste, it has a nice sparkle to it, doesn't it?
It is NOT too late to play along this month.  Please check out the blog and see all the fabulous cards from the DT!  See you in the gallery!
Heart Hugs, friends!

I wish the real snowflakes came down in this color, wouldn't our world be beautiful in a snowfall. This is stunning and a very cool idea.
