Happy Cuttlebug Tuesday!

Challenge if you choose to accept it:

Create a children's card with an animal on it.

I am so glad I bought this elephant from SU.
It is totally not my style but I fell in love.

I did a special technique.
I am going to call it "color over glitter".
I used a special sticker paper that is made for glitter.
I sprinkled the glitter over the whole piece and used my finder to "buff" it into the adhesive. I then stamped the elephant on the glitter. Let it dry for a minute and then went at it with Copics. Yes, I colored over the glitter with the Copics. The glitter does not come off onto the markers.

Isn't that cool?!?!

Recipe:
Solid Paper: Papertrey Ink
Pattern Paper: Sassafrass
Ink: Distress Ink-red, Momento-black
Die Cuts: Spellbinders
Stamps: Stampin' up
Other: ribbon (SU), Gems (richards), sewing, Copics and glitter

We'd love for you to play along at The Cuttlebug Spot.
