After making 8 cards a month for everyone else, I always make a special card for my daughter. I forgot to take a picture of it so asked her to take the photo and send to me. I don't know how she did it, but this photo looks totally flat, when in actuality it is quite dimensional. I rarely use dimensionals, so that was a part of what made this card special.
I used dimensionals on the green, red and yellow layers of the flower, so in some places it was 3 dimensionals deep and really popped irl. She said she would take another photo at a slight angle, and if she does, I'll change this photo.
I used a white cs base. Then another piece of white cs was edged with Versamark and red ep. I put gemstones in the 4 corners, stamped my images and attached the flower which was made with the Build a Blossom punch and embossed with the Swiss Dots ef. The yellow center is a little piece of glitter paper topped with another gemstone. Added some Stickles for the holly berries.

Very very nice! I have also noticed that when I scan my cards, Shimmery paper and glitter don't show up well. My cards that might be stunning IRL just look blah! :(
