CAS sparkling stripes

No stamping from me today, just CAS cards with lots of sparkle.

I have used Double Sided tape and Micro Fine Glitter from X-Press It to make the sparkling striped corners.  The tapes are 3mm, 6mm and 12mm wide and I spaced each strip 2mm apart on 5" x 7" card bases.  I smothered the tape with glitter then burnished it before brushing the excess away.  I die cut the "happy" and "birthday" sentiment.  The birthday die comes with a backing layer and the white makes the black word contrast even more against the glitter strips of the background.

First up is the vibrant Fuchsia card.

   

... and here is the elegant Silver card.

   

Here is another sparkling card that I made using the luscious 3mm, 12mm and 25mm X-Press It Glitter Tapes.  Click HERE on on the image below if you would like to learn more about it.
