3 Using the third largest die, cut from a sheet of foiled patterned paper. Edge using the Chloe’s Creative Cards Chisel-Tip Glue Pen and cover in Glass Slipper Sparkelicious glitter. Cut die 4 from Crystal White pearl card and edge as before. Affix both layers to your card using Art Glitter Dries-Clear glue.

Add dots of glue to the berries on the image and cover in Red Poinsettia Sparkelicious glitter. Add glue to the owls’ hats and stocking then cover in White Christmas Sparkelicious glitter. Matt and layer onto a piece of Lapis Lazuli pearl card and affix to the card using foam pads. Add a selection of self-adhesive sparkles to the background.
