A gift with a little glitz!

Happy Kitchen Sink Monday! I hope everyone had a wonderful Autumn weekend.

Just-for-YouI am taking a tiny break from the fast approaching Holidays with a Birthday Card. I did have fun playing with this cool Laser Luster paper from Paper Temptress… and from what I understand, it works really well in a printer too. I haven’t tried that yet… I just think it is so beautiful all on its own and makes the perfect background for this little present with its glittery ribbon. The glittery ribbon was created after stamping the box and ribbon. Then using step #1 of the ribbon again, I stamped using VersaMark and embossing with Kaleidoscope EP from Stampendous. It added just a touch of glitz to the ribbon. 🙂

See what the rest of the Kitchen Sink Crew has also cooked up for today.
