Year One of Messes!

Today is time for another Hot Mess card and this is card number 12. We just completed our first year of posting cards--and getting messy!  The idea of Hot Mess ~ Success started with Kelly and the general theme is to Get Messy and you will have Success!  Messiness can be almost anything that we come up with--glitter, alcohol inks, glimmer glitz, sponged backgrounds, etc., anything that is a bit messy.  We are a group of 4--Terry, Jeanette, Kelly and me. We will post a card each month on the 12th.

For this month's messiness,  I tried another type of glimmer paste and I think the colors are so pretty.  It is Cosmic Shimmer Luna Paste and the color is Moonlight Sky.  I used a Picket Fence stencil called Waffle Square and trimmed the piece.  I layered over some blue Mirricard from The Paper Cut.  The sentiment is from Stampin' Up Cheers to Love and I die cut with Gina Marie Designs Venetian Labels.  There is a bit of dimension on the light blue layer as I used a We R Memories embossing folder called Geometric.  A few rhinestones are the final touch!

Here is the inside of my card, with a strip of Mirricard:
