This card uses the Vegas Gold Shimmer Paint which has been spritzed onto the Merry Merlot card after embossing with the Tin Tile Embossing folder.
I do not have a christmas bauble die and decided that the largest balloon die from the Up and Away Thinlits would do the trick. It has been diecut out of Gold Foil paper and layered on top of Gold Glimmer paper. I just sniped off the basket with my scissors.
I've used cream ribbon (not Stampin' Up) to 'hang' the bauble and three tiny pearls have been placed on the card also.
Something interesting I learnt the other day when in the chemist to buy rubbing alcohol - I was told that rubbing alcohol is mainly methylated spirits and to just use meths - it works just the same and is a lot cheaper.

Remember, a handcrafted card is like sending a hug with a fold in the middle!
I wanted to have a play with the shimmer paints and decided to give this card a bit of texture in the background using scrunched up gladwrap and the Frost White Shimmer Paint. It's quite subtle but very pretty.
I've used the Delicate Lace Edgelits Dies and Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer Paper (which is retired) to give a lovely detail at the bottom of the card - set off beautifully on the Blackberry Bliss cardstock.
