Todays card uses the very pretty stamps and dies from the Quiet Meadow bundle; I actually only bought the stamps as I knew I didn't need the dies .... ermm fail!! I needed those gorgeous dies which also work as a stand alone set, they don't cut out images from the stamp set itself but they do make great background filler, stunning silhouettes and very pretty projects!
I love the rainbow Glimmer paper and have used a lot of it already - the whole sheet ranges from greens to purples, to yellows and orange. It isn't a 'glitter' type cardstock where the flakes fall off, it is a more subtle glimmer which has a very soft look but has the raised texture of glitter. I have used 2 packs and am on my third - makes stunning, easy backgrounds which just give a look of sponging with shine!
I liked the very 1/8" narrow borders for the layers on my card, you could simple make each layer 1/4" larger than the glimmer paper to make cutting and measuring easier.
