For August VSN challenge to use pearl ex, twinkling H2O's or scallops on a card. I decided to get a jump on my christmas cards with this one. I have done a card with a shaving cream blizzard background before but for this one I added pearl ex. I started out with the shaving cream tech. with Brilliant Blue ink, swirled that a bit in the tray and then added some dabs of silver pearl ex and swirled that.
After the background was dry I stamped randomly some snowflakes and then my sentiment. I also decided to add a scalloped peice behind my focal image. I don't know how well it shows up in person but the background is quite pearly in person.
