Jeanne's MIXed media challenge today called for us to use a new die, stamp or stencil and at least two mediums.
In my 50F attic this morning before work I pulled out this old piece of Magical Masking Tape. I'm not sure why the tutorial specifies gloss card - I practically always use normal cardstock and I think I prefer the look. This was an attempt with glossy to see how it turned out. At a guess, the colours are peacock feather and broken china.
I brushed some white acrylic thickly across the bottom, giving me two mediums, and sprinkled the flower soft on it. Moddy Christmas and my brother were good to me in terms of Amazon shopping, so I have a few new dies to play with. Here I used the TH tree, cutting it from an old piece of very wrinkled wrinkle-free distress with ODBD sheet music stamped on it. I layered it up a little on plain white card, and added some sprinkles of flower soft and glass glitter. And I added the little copper stars. Home from work and with my attic now up to 53F all I needed to do was add it to the card base and stamp the sentiment.

I don't suppose you want to know that it is more than double that here...thought not. Now about your card...wow, it's wonderful. Thanks for all the details and the hint about being ok on normal cardstock. I love the flower soft sprinkled on the paint. The tree is gorgeous!!!!
