Here's my take on this challenge:
Super simple CAS card. I die cut the navy panel with a SSS stitched edge die. The star is the Star of Wonder from Memory Box. I cut the star in the navy panel, then cut it again in a silver glitter paper and inset it into the navy. The sentiment is from PTI and is embossed in silver. It's difficult to see on here, but I backed the navy paper with another piece of the silver glitter paper like I used for the star. Very sparkly card IRL. Sorry the navy color looks so washed out...it's really a deep navy, but I'm taking the photo indoors .... rain, rain, and more rain...all day today!
This next card is for the 52 (Christmas) Card Throwdown the theme challenge for February.
The snow border across the top of the card is from Memory Box. I cut it from white card stock, then ran it through my Xyron and sprinkled it with glitter dust. It's really sparkly! The sentiment "peace" is a die from Papertrey Ink, and the "be still" is from the coordinating stamp set. I stamped the "be still" in Versamark (twice) using my MISTI, and heat embossed it with silver pearl embossing powder. The word peace was covered with Versamark (3 times) and heat embossed between each inking with silver pearl embossing powder. I added three pearls and a scattering of pearly sequins. Super quick and easy card!
