Happy Halloween all, hope you are having some spooky fun tonight and enjoying our blog hop!!!  There are 7 amazing stamp sets this month and I really had so much fun playing with them.  I used the Winter Bird House to create a step card with lots of sparkly winter trees and snowflakes.  I would love to show you how my card was created!!  

I created three blue panels that were stenciled used Simon Says Falling Snow stencil and embossing paste.  While the paste was wet I sprinkled Sparkling Snow on top to give it a beautiful sparkle.

The image was then stamped and colored using copic markers.  Sparkle was added to the image using Nuvo Small Glue Pen, Sparkling Snow, Waterfall, Pistachio and Fire Engine Red glitter.  For the falling snow I put small drops of dimensional glue and glittered with Sparkling Snow. The edges were inked with Memento Bahama Blue ink.  

The pretty side trees using Heartfelt Creations Snow Kissed Collections.  Brushable glue was applied on top of each tree and glittered using Sparkling Snow glitter.  To same of the tree branches I applied White Liquid Applique, let it dry and heat set.  It really gave the tree branches a snowy look.  Small blue birds were cut using my Silhouette and placed on the trees.

The right side was repeated with the same techniques.  A small snowflake was die cut using the same die set, brushable glue was applied and glittered using Sparkling Snow glitter.  A small drop of Caribbean Ocean Crystal Drop was applied to the center. 

The snow banks were die cut using Elizabeth Craft's Outdoor Edges.  They were inked, glittered using Sparkling Snow and Nuvo Large Glue Pen.  

Hope you have enjoyed my project I really love how pretty it turned out.  

Here is a sneak peek of 5 project to come using more of the new stamp sets.  I hope you will stop back by to see all of the details on each project.

Happy Halloween!!

Happy Halloween all, hope you have a very spooky fun night!!  I would like to share my Halloween projects and cards with you today.  I made Trick or Treat bags for my grandchildren as well as a spooky haunted house and tree. 

These bags were cut using svgcut files along with Anna Griffin dies.

This spooky haunted house and tree are made completely out of paper using svgcuts files.  My grandson just loved all the spookiness!!

This cute little lantern was also cut out of paper embossed with embossing folder.  It really makes a cute Halloween decoration.

Halloween spinner cards made for my grandbabies.  They will love how the spider and witch spin around the card.

Christmas Candles

Hope you all are having a wonderful weekend!!  We are enjoying some cool fall weather here in Houston, TX!!!  I would like to share a Christmas card with you today using the new Christmas Candle stamp set from Sparkle N Sprinkle.

I started my card by embossing the green cardstock using a Anna Griffin embossing folder.  Using my finger on the raised embossed areas Platinum Mousse was added to give that pretty shimmer.  The frame is also from a embossing folder from Anna Griffin that was cut around and glittered using Nuvo Small Glue Pen and Sparkling Snow glitter.  Nuvo Cooper Gliding Flakes was applied to the lattice die.  I used the large Nuvo Glue Pen on the die cut let it dry slightly and then applied the flakes.  I really love how pretty this turned out!!

 

Next the rose image was stamped and colored using copic markers.  Sparkle was added using a glue pen, Sparkling Snow, Champagne, Sunny Daze and Green Iris. The image was then fussy cut out.  On the red berries Clear Crystal Drops were applied.  Next I applied Cloud Nine glitter on top of a piece of super adhesive sheet stamped the candles and colored with copic makers.  They were fussy cut out and placed behind the rose.  

Thanks so much for stopping by have a wonderful weekend and remember.....Keep Stamping!!

Merry Christmas Shaker Card

Good morning all, hope your week is going great!!  I would like to share a shaker card with you using the new Christmas Tag #1 stamp set!! 

To create this sparkly background I used different sizes of Tear-ific Tape, Emerald Green, Gypsy Red, and Champagne glitter.

The tape was placed on the cardstock at a diagonal.  Randomly remove the backing and applied glitter one color at a time.

The image was stamped and colored with copic markers.  Using Nuvo Small Glue Pen, Margarita and Silver Dream glitter was added to the image. White foam and clear acetate was die cut using Spellbinders Circle dies. Embellishments were added to the shaker.

Elephant Christmas

Good morning, and happy Wednesday!! This morning I would to share a easel card with you using the new Elephant Christmas digi stamp set.

The image was sized and printed off using the color option.  To add some sparkle to the cute little elephant I used Nuvo's glue pen along with Moon Rise, Sparkling Snow, Spirited Green, Sassy Silver, Fire Engine Red, and Golden Silver glitters.  Along the edges of the card and card base, 1/4 and 1/8 Tear-ific Tape strips were added.  The backing was removed, Fire Engine Red glitter was applied to the card and Golden Silver was applied to the card base.

Crystal Drops were used to embellish the image.  For her toenails, Rhubard Crumble was used.  Small drops of White Crystal Drops were placed on the tree.  Along the edge Honey Gold drops were added.  White Blizzard was used on the ornaments.  Ebony Black dots were placed on the stocking and Ruby Slippers were added to the holly berries.

The bottom panel was embossed using a Anna Griffin embossing folder.  Using my finger Pure Platinum Mousse was applied to the raised areas.  This gave a pretty shimmer to the embossed areas.  Next small drops of Honey Gold Crystal Drops were added to the panel.

The large snowflake was cut using a svg file.  The larger snowflake was inked using versamark, and embossed using Golden Sparkle EP.  The smaller snowflake was inked with versamark and embossed using Sparkle EP.  A large drop of Ruby Slipper Crystal Drop was added to the center of the snowflake.  A smaller drop of White Crystal Drop was added to the larger drop.

O Christmas Tree

Good morning everyone, hope your day is off to a great start!!!  I hope you were able to join the Sparkle N Sprinkle October 1st Reveal, and see all the new stamp sets for this month.  Today I would like to share a card with you using the new Christmas Tag #1 stamp set, Tear-ific Tape and lots of Glitter!!

This card has so much sparkle!!!  Let me show you how that was achieved.

The plaid background was started using Fire Engine Red, Champagne, Elegant Emerald glitter and Tear-ific Tape.

 Strips of 1/2 Tear-ific Tape were placed on my cardstock.  The backing was removed and Fire Engine Red glitter was applied, burnish well with my finger.  The excess glitter was brushed off.

Next 1/4" Tear-ific Tape was placed on top of the 1/2" tape. 

The backing was removed and Elegant Emerald glitter was applied.  Repeating the steps.

More strips of 1/4" and 1/8" Tear-ific Tape were added.

The backing was removed and glittered using Champagne glitter.  

This background turned out so beautiful and was perfect for my stamped image.  The image was stamped with versamark and embossed using Golden Sparkle EP.  The image was stamped a 2nd time, embossed and the tree was fussy cut out.  Using Nuvo Glue Pen glitter was added to the tree and numbers. The pretty snowflake is a Heartfelt Creations die from the Snow Kissed Collections.  The image was placed on top of the snowflake using pop dots, and the tree was placed on top of the main image tree using a pop dot.

I just love how pretty and sparkly this card turned out!

Thanks so much for stopping by, have a wonderful day and remember......Keep Stamping!!!!
