Beccy's Place - month of holiday cards - day 18

Day 18 at Beccy's Place month of holiday cards is Distress Inks
http://www.beccysplace.blogspot.com.au/


I didn't have any watercolour card so have just used ordinary card.    I stamped Stamp It "Christmas Love" onto white card with red distress ink, then painted it using wet brush and distress inks.  Painted another piece of white card with blue distress ink then sponged the edges with distress ink.  Cut out stamp and layered it onto blue card and stamped Penny Black "Christmas Wishes".   Layered onto red star paper from Christmas basic 12x12 paper pad and then onto kraft card.  Added punched star which I coloured with glitter pen (the shine doesn't show in the scan).   Added glitter around star and around picture.

I would also like to enter this card into the following challenges:
