Here is my card for the challenge, an easy Quick CAS card. I created my background using the new Hero Arts night sky using Distress inks, I Stamped my images then covered it with Sookwang double sided tape. The sticky surface was covered in glitter and burnished to make sure it sticks.


You can see the sparkle a little better with the image tilted.


I'm so glad you dropped by.
