Happy New Year friends!! Here’s wishing for a very HAPPY, HEALTHY and CRAFTY 2019 to you all!!
So… to be festive and join in on the celebration everywhere, I’ve decided to make a special card just for the occasion! 🙂
I’ve used this really fun digital stamp called Max and I have used my Prisma Color pencils to color him in with over some Canson Mi-Teintes Pastel paper. I cut him out with a circle die and then ran some glue around the edges with a Nuvo Medium Tip Glue Pen and sprinkled some Copper Jewel Glitter over it. I mounted another circle behind it that I’ve cut out with some Tonic Burnished Rose Mirror Cardstock.
For the background of my card, I’ve used some Adhesive Sheets that I’ve cut out in different sized circles and then added some of the same glitter that I’ve used for around the frog image panel. I cut a few more circles out with the same mirror cardstock as well.
Before attaching the circles, I’ve heat embossed the sentiment over the A2 sized top folding black card base with some bronze Rose embossing powder, which I think matches up beautifully with that mirror cardstock! Right underneath the embossed sentiment, I added some 1/4″ Tear Tape and sprinkled on some more of that pretty glitter that I’ve used all over this card. Then I added all the circles in the background including the frog image panel and cut off the circle part sticking over the edge on the right side.
Taking a closer look at the “party Max frog”, you can see better how he’s colored in and a few other details that I’ve added to him. For the olive shine, I’ve used some Nuvo Morning Dew Crystals Drops and for the “liquid” glass he’s sitting in, I’ve taken the Nuvo Medium Tip Glue Pen and sprinkled some Waterscape glitter over it. I’ve also used the Nuvo Gold Coast Glitter Drops to add a bit of sparkle around Max’s head. (I’m assuming that it’s a bit of “champagne pops” from the glass! Tee Hee!)
Just like Max here, I’m just as happy to dive right into the New Year in 2019!
Thanks so much for dropping in!! Enjoy your first day in 2019!
Happy New Year to you, Vicki! Congratulations on your new DT! They must be happy to have you in their team!
Your card is gorgeous. Love that cute Max in the glass.

Hello Nancy! You have done real miracles with this picture. I love the details of coloring. It looks so natural, I love how the color of the frog in the glass and outside has disappeared. I also love all the elements of glamor. Incredible, great inspiration.
Happy New Year for you and your family
