I purchased a package of 8 blank cards from Michaels a while back and played a bit yesterday. The cards are glossy so I had to be careful when stamping so that my images wouldn't smear.

I should have used the darker green (
Viridian Leaf PH) on the stars (
Christmas Minis set) in the white circles instead of the light green (
Chartreuse PH). The tree (
Joy of Christmas set) was also stamped on glossy to match the card and the text is from the Thinking of You hostess set. I used a green from
DCWV Brights cardstock stack to layer all stamped images.

Here is a closeup of the tree. The ink had quite a reaction to the glossy. You can see some of the "dots" where I used my
Stardust Clear Gel pen for some bling.

Here is the inside. I used the stars again to give some design to the inside and the text is from the
Holiday Wishes set. I'm still trying to decide if I need to add something more to the cover. Any ideas or leave it as is?? Comments appreciated!!
