Yikes because i wanted to do this very simple card and two hours later it is finally completed. I couldn’t figure out how to get the glitter onto those snowflakes and then onto the cards. I think my brain is worn out. I thought i was working with double stick paper but i was only using one stick side, i tried spraying the backs with adhesive and then the front would hold the glitter. I made a mistake and tried to use embossing glitter and that didn’t work at all. YIKES i am sick of working on this so called simple card. But to my credit, i prevailed, and here it is!! 
What i ended up doing was using some one sided sticky paper. I cut out the stars using my new MFT snowflake dies. Peeled the backs off and poured the glitter onto the sticky side, burnished with a paper over them and a pop sickle stick. Sprayed the backs with spray adhesive, stuck them on and added a sticker border. The sentiment from MFT embossed nicely with Tsukineko #02 Silver. This is the best shiny silver embossing powder i have used. I love the shiny embossing it gives. I had some other stuff that embossed kind of gray metallic instead of silver and I love this one. Thanks for stopping by.
Oh, bless, Janeen, good for you for persevering! It IS a lovely CASlicious card, even though it ended up not being an EASY card to make! I think we are all in the YIKES wagon when it comes to failing to use up our NBUS again for another year!! I wish you happy holidays and all the best in the new year!! Hugs, Darnell
