Winter wonderland - Stamping411 Sketch Challenge

I used the dryer technique to complete this challenge.  This technique is quite easy to do and a lot of fun.  Start saving your used dryer sheets now if you would like to make a number of these cards, which I usually do.
I also flipped the sketch to make a horizontal card rather than a vertical card.
Stamp: Scenic Season, A Cardinal Christmas
Paper: Garden Green, Basic Gray, Whisper White,
Ink: Wild Wasabi.  The word "Seasons Greetings" which is part of the stamp was blocked out with a post it note.  The cardinal was coloured with a real red SU marker.
After all the inking was done, glue(I used the Stampin' Up Glue stick) was applied to the entire surface of the card front.  The used dryer sheet was then attached, and smoothed down.  While the glue was wet, dazzling diamonds was put over the entire surface over the dryer sheet, and the excess tapped off.  The excess dryer cloth was trimmed off.
Accessories: 5/8" white satin ribbon, oval punch, dryer sheet, dazzling diamonds.

Beautiful Card, did you use a used dryer sheet or a new one.
