Instructions:  My card base measures 5 1/2 X 5 1/2; finished overall dimensions 6 1/4 X 6 1/2.  Make card base and set aside.  Cut a piece of the paper collection and using a sponge with adhesive on the end, blot over the paper and then sprinkle with glitter.  Using the same sponge with more adhesive apply more onto the paper and then use the Crystal Clear to add more interest.  Set aside to dry.  Once dry glue to the card base.  Next cut an image from the paper using the circle die and mount it onto a larger circle of red cardstock.  Next I cut a Lacey Circle out of white cardstock and mounted the image piece onto that.  Using the hot glue gun, glue down the string of pearls around the edge of the image circle.  Next glue this whole piece to the top right hand corner of the card. At this point, I decided I wanted a bit of sparkle to the round image and went back in and added some glue and Crystal Clear.  Cut out one of the tickets on the paper collection and use dimensional tape to mount to the card front.  Next cut a medallion from white cardstock and glue it to the bottom of the card front.  Stamp in Tuxedo Black ink the image and color using the Dove Blender Pen and Memento Inks.  I added glitter just to make it more festive.  Once it is dry use dimensional tape and glue over the medallion.

Beautiful! You always have the best ideas for HC products. I now see another idea for that gorgeous fan-shaped die. Love the way you nestled the pomegranate arrangement into it. So pretty! Love the holly paper, too, and the pearls ringing the cardinals. I just love it all!
