Holly Jolly Christmas challenge...GIMME GLITTER! LOL

This week's Holly Jolly challenge is a good one...all about GLITTER!  WOOHOO!!  Here's my submission:

This card was inspired by a card I saw on Pinterest.  I SWORE I would not get too invloved in that site...so much for that idea!  I tweaked it a bit to make it my own, but it is pretty similar to the inspiration card.  Before I coated the "ornament" TWICE with Mod Podge and MS crystal coarse glitter, I inked the edges with TH Frayed Burlap ink.  LOVE that color!  The sentiment comes from the Christmas Glamour set from TCP, and is stamped in TCP brown.  I did have some difficulty in getting the bow to stay adhered where I wanted it.  Alene's Tacky glue and some steady pressure from the bottle finally did the trick!

Well, that's all there is to say really...I hope everyone has a good week!
