Glittery Alcohol Ink Christmas

A new package of Memory Box Delicate Pastel Glitter Paper arrived this week from my Anniversary Sale Shopping at Paper Anthology, so I had to make some more Alcohol Ink Glitter Paper (following Jennifer Maguire's tutorial).  I just love the process and the end effect.

Here are the three color combinations I played with.  There are 7-8 inks on each page.

I used the top blue/green one for my holiday card for the Uniko Stamps Challenge which is 'Tis the Season with the optional theme of Sparkle … I think I've got the sparkle covered.

I cut my inky glitter paper into a 3" strip and then stamped images from Uniko's Christmas Background Builders.

I added color to a single tree using a green Kirarina 2win marker and added shimmer with clear Wink of Stella on top … and then I added a tiny gold gem at the top of the tree.  The finishing touch were a couple of Green Love from Lizi Peel Off strips to frame the stamping.

I'm also linking-up at the Allsorts Challenge where the theme is Christmas Flowers, Wreaths and Trees and the Simon Says Stamp Anything Goes Challenge.

And I've got Tic-Tac-Toe with The Paper Players across the bottom with Green, my tree colored with a Kirarina Marker and Wink of Stella, and my tiny bling embellishment at the top of the tree.
