Just look at that shimmer!
I designed this card inspired by the latest Fusion Challenge.

If you haven't played along at Fusion before, you can use either the sketch or the inspiration image, ooooooor you can mash 'em up and create a Fusion.
I used an embossing folder on some shimmer pearl cardstock. Then I pressed some Cracked Pistachio and Abandoned Coral Distress Inks onto my craft mat and picked it up with a wet paint brush.
I also wanted to play along in Seize the Birthday's latest Splatter challenge.

I rubbed some InkaGold onto a craft mat and then added some water. I used it to create a shimmery splatter all over the card.
Taaaadaaaa! Can I just say that it was a BEAR to photograph this? Shiny things are nice in real life, but the camera hates them!
