I used Cosmo Cricket Papers and the Herringbone Technique from the December issue to create the background for my card. I also decided to incorporate a few other TJ techniques on my card, I used a morphed version of the Sepia Technique on Santa image from the Artistic Outpost Snowy Woods Plate. Why morphed you ask? After finishing, the technique, I added some additional coloring with Spica Glitter Pens.

I attached the stamped image to the Watch Chipboard piece from the Framed Font Chipboard that I applied the Distressed Glimmers Technique to - colors Ranger Fired Brick Distress Ink, Iridescent Gold Glimmer Mist. I adhered the Chip Board stamped panel to my card using dimensionals. To give that overall sparkle, I spritzed Pearl Glimmer Mist over the entire card. I created the beautiful bow using the Bow Easy and Sable Swiss Satin Ribbon. Before adhering the bow to the Chipboard piece, I lightly spritzed it with Pearl Glimmer Mist, then used a Heat Gun to dry the ribbon, giving it that antiqued look. I used Eclipse Black as the layer under my Herringbone and Brawny RC 100 in Burgundy from TJ Vendor Paper Temptress as my base card.
