Make It Monday #301 with Lizzie Matting with Glitter

 

Finally a card for MIM.  After having to mess with glitter several times, I finally came up with a card that I could post.  The frame I created was too large to have it framing the stamped piece because it didn't show enough pattern paper so,  I made a smaller one and popped it up.  I wasn't about to make another glitter piece.  I made mine by using score tape, but it was still a mess.

Lizzie's pretty card.
