Boy did I go the wrong direction with the colors. I had it right (background panel), then changed it at the last minute. It is what it is, even if that is also crooked. I can do another and get it right, maybe...
After playing with the shaving cream yesterday, I wanted to play more today. I made up about another dozen sheets. Stuck with the same 2 colors today. When using the Lumiere Paints with the shaving cream, you get a nice shimmer in spots.
I did some with stencils and even monoprinting. You may see those later.
The poinsettia has some silver in it, which I mixed in at the end. The shaving cream was such a pretty aqua color.
I did indulge in dessert, which was to make a Christmas card. At least the glitter in Christmas is close to the Tranquil Tide
Thanks for this challenge. I got 2 more Christmas cards made.
TFL!

Oh, Jennifer, you are too hard on yourself. This is gorgeous, and I LOVE the dies and the stunning poinsettia. I've not tried the shaving cream technique...yet! Haha! Hugs!

such a stunning card. I love the way half the sentiment is part of the background and half cut out of it and is shimmery. That's a really neat die. Love the poinsettia too.

I love your pointsettia with the random little wisps of aqua against the silver. The deep toned glittery Christmas really pops against the swirled shving cream bg - Beautifully done!
