Glitter Pineapple

What's better than a cute hero_product_link sku="DI160" text="Paper Layering Pineapple"] added to a card? A *glittery* hero_product_link sku="DI160" text="Paper Layering Pineapple"]!! I had a piece of gold glitter cardstock lying on my desk, with my pineapple die nearby, and I just couldn't resist putting the two great things together! :)

I had a little bit of trouble capturing just how much shimmer there is on this pineapple, but the close-up below gives you an idea. I paired it with a sentiment from hero_product_link sku="CL954" text="Many Everyday Messages"] stamped in hero_product_link sku="AF249" text="Unicorn ink"]. Have you added this message set to your stash yet? It is so useful, I find myself pulling it out nearly every time I make a card. I paired these with hero_product_link sku="PS640" text="Pool"] and hero_product_link sku="PS697" text="Midnight"] papers, and some hero_product_link sku="CH214" text="Earth"] gems. The other elements on the card are from my stash - some polka dot vellum, and colored burlap paper (I think they are both from DCWV).

Now that I've tried this die with glitter paper, I'm going to have to find some other unusual papers to use with it. I wonder what it would look like with that burlap paper??

Thanks for stopping by!
