Happy Hopping!

Hope you all are having fun with all the new stamp sets and enjoying the hop with all the beautiful project.  I choose to use the Victorian Camille at Christmas 864 for my project.  I had just received the Merry Christmas Header Die Set from Tonic and thought that would be a perfect choice for the beautiful image.  So lets get started on all the details!

 

 

 

 

To start my card I needed to make the background paper and choose the Lacey Glitter technique.  Using sticker paper, lace, Mermaid and Sassy Silver glitter the pretty sparkly background was created. The lace was placed on top of the sticky side of the sticker paper and covered with Mermaid glitter.  The glitter was burnish well with my finger and the access glitter was brushed off.  The sticker paper was then pulled away from the lace and I was left with a pretty blue lace background.  Next the remaining sticky areas were covered with Sassy Silver glitter, burnish well and brushed off to give me a beautiful background. 

 

 

I hope you can see all the beautiful sparkle!

 

 

The image was then printed using the color stamp.  Sparkle was added using the Small Nuvo Glue Pen, Sparkling Snow, Spirited Green, Evening Glow, Waterfall and Fire Engine Red glitter.  Small drops of White Blizzard Glitter drops were placed around this pretty girl along with small snowflakes punched using a Fisker punch.  Small drops of Ruby Slipper Glitter drops were placed on the berries.

 

 

The card base was die cut and die cut a second time using blue cardstock to created a shadow.  The background paper was adhered to the card front and the image was placed on top using foam tape.

 

 

The bottom half was die cut and a piece of blue cardstock placed behind the wording.  Using the small glue pen and Sparking Snow glitter for a little sparkle on the snowflakes.  Small drops of Sea Breeze Jewel Drops were added.  A ribbon was created using the Lacey Background technique.  You can see a tutorial here on how to create this look with the Merry Christmas Header Fold Die Set. 

 

I hope you have a fun time on the blog hop, be sure to stop by all of the very talented designers and see their beautiful project!!

 The next stop on the SNS Blog Hop is ANNE!!

Thanks for stopping by have a wonderful evening and remember.....Keep Stamping!!



Thank You

Good morning everyone, today I'm sharing a Thank You card using the new Flower Cart stamp set!  This is a beautiful stamp and makes a pretty Thank You card.

To create the glitter strip, I used the Lacy Glitter Background Technique.

First I laid a piece of lace on top of sticker paper and covered it with Black Suede glitter, making sure to burnish it well before removing the lace.

This is what it looked like once the lace was removed.

The piece was then covered with Peruvian Lily glitter and burnish well.  The remaining glitter was brushed off leaving me with a beautiful background piece.

The strip was adhered to the card base.  A small line of glitter was added to the edges using a glue pen and Peruvian Lily glue.

The lovely butterfly was made using sticker paper Elizabeth Craft Butterfly 1 die,  RaptureBlue , Margarita, Celestial and Bronze Splendor glitter. I removed each section and glitter one at a time.  This really make such a pretty design.  Small pearls were added to the body. The shadow was die cut from sticker paper and glittered using Cloud Nine glitter.

The sentiment was stamped with versamark and embossed using White Detail EP.  The leaves were glittered using Pistachio glitter and a glue pen.

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

It's Christmas in July, and I just love this Christmas Skate stamp set!!  Hope you all are enjoying the blog hop, there are so many pretty stamp sets this month!!  Let me share with you how I created my card.

 To create the background I used the tutorial by Demo Donna for a Lacey Glitter background.  This creates such a beautiful sparkly look.  I used Elegant Emerald first then removed the lace and covered the remaining areas with Champagne glitter.  Hope you can see all the beautiful sparkle!!

To start my card I stamped the image and colored with copic markers.  Sparkle was added using a glue pen, Silver Dreams, Bronze Splendor and Margarita glitter.  Margarita is a new glitter and it is gorgeous.  The berries were dotted with Crystal Drops Ruby Slippers.  

I placed a piece of 1/2" Tear-ific Tape on the right side of the background paper removed the protective backing and covered with Fire Engine Red glitter.  Next the bow was die cut using Anna Griffin bow die and sticker paper.  The backing was removed and the pieces were glittered with Fire Engine Red glitter.  Want 2 Scrap pearls were placed in the center.

I used the digi stamp for the sentiment, the rubber stamp was to big for the die. The bottom embellishment was die cut using Spellbinder's Radiant Rectangles and sticker paper.  The backing was removed and glittered using Sparkling Snow glitter.  The sentiment was then placed on top using a foam dot.  To create the background paper, I used Anna Griffin Snowflake embossing folder.  To give the snowflakes a bit of shimmer Nuvo Mother of Pearl Mousse was used on the raised areas.  This was my first time using the mousse and it is just beautiful!!  A small strip of left over lace background was adhered to the middle of the bottom panel.

Here is a sneak peek of projects to come!

We hope you enjoy the New Reveal Blog Hop as much as we do.  Thanks for joining us and remember to visit and comment on each of the eight Designers' blogs to be eligible for the Grand Prize. (Checked for compliance.)

Happy New Year everyone, hope you had a wonderful Christmas and are ready for a new year of crafting fun!!  I choose to use the digi version of Happily Ever After to create a shadow box. For the background and frame around the outside, I started with a piece of sticker paper, removed the backing and placed a piece of lace on top of the adhesive.  The entire piece was glittered using Golden Silver glitter.  The lace was removed and the remaining area was glittered using Silver Dreams glitter.  This is the Lace Background technique, you will find a tutorial HERE on how to create this beautiful sparkly paper.  The shadow box was then cut using a svg file and my Silhouette.  

 The image was printed using the color image and cut out using my Silhouette.  Glitter was added to small areas of the bride and groom using a glue pen, Sparkling Snow and Spirited Green glitter.  

Small dots of Opal Liquid Pearls was added to the bride's hair.

The flowers were die cut using Tim Holtz's Tattered Flowers from white cardstock and inked with Memento Rose Bud ink.  The wedding rings were cut using a svg file from sticker paper and glittered using Golden Silver and Sparkling Snow glitter.  The flowers were layered on the shadow box using pop dots.  A small Pull Ribbon bow was added behind the flowers.  The sentiment was printed, fussy cut apart and placed on frame using pop dots.  Pearls were added to the flowers and frame.

We hope you enjoy the New Reveal Blog Hop as much as we do.  Thanks for joining us and remember to comment on each of the Designers' blogs to be eligible for the Grand Prize.

If You Can't Fly

Good morning everyone, as Halloween nears I wanted to share another spooky card with you!!  For this card I used the witch from the newly released Cackle On stamp set and the digi trees from the Sleigh Ride stamp set from Sparkle N Sprinkle.

To start the card I needed to make my background using the Lacy Background techinque.  Using a piece of sticker paper placed on top of white cardstock, remove the backing and place the spider web lace on top.  I used Night Sky first, burnish well with my finger.  The lace was removed and the lace was covered with Sparkling Snow and burnish well.  It really created a spooky background for my witch.

Using  Spellbinder's circle dies the moon was die cut from CS.  I layer two of the dies together on top of sticker paper to make the outer ring for the moon.  The backing was removed and glittered using Purple Rain glitter.  The edges of the moon was inked and a small line of glitter was added around the moon with a glue pen and Orange Surprise glitter.

My witch was stamped with versamark onto the moon and embossed using Black Detail EP.

Next the fence was punched using MS punch.  A little sparkle was added on the fence using a glue pen, Purple Rain and Sassy Silver glitter.

To create the slime, dimensional glue was placed on acetate and covered with Green Nugget glitter.  Allow the slime to dry overnight, then peel away from the acetate and you have glittery slime.

The tree were made using the digi Sleigh Ride stamp set.  It were enlarged and printed using a laser printer.  The tree was then fussy cut out and foiled using my Anna Griffin Minc machine and silver foil.  

The cute little ghost was die cut using Anna Griffin die.  The raised embossing was glittered using a glue pen and Orange Surprise glitter.

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

Christmas in July

Good afternoon all, hope your day has been great!!  I'm sharing a Christmas card today using the new 3 Wise Men Digi from Sparkle N Sprinkle.    

First thing I created the background paper using the Lacey Glitter technique.  Golden Silver and Sassy Silver Glitter was used along with sticker paper to create this beautiful background.

The images was printed onto cardstock and color using Prisma Pencils.  Sparkle was added to the men using a glue pen, along with Ocean, Spirited Green, Evening Glow and Purple Dust glitter.  The glittery frame was die cut from sticker paper using Sizzix Funky Label Dies.  The protective backing was removed and glittered with Fire Engine Red glitter.

The sentiment was printed onto cardstock also, with ends cut to create a banner.  Edges were inked with Memento Bamboo Leaves ink and placed on the card using pop dots.

The wait is almost over....a few more days until the HUGE Joint Blog Hop for Cancer Awareness. Mark your calendars for this Friday, July 31 at 9pm Eastern time. Fabulous prizes will be awarded from both companies and proceeds from the sale of dies and stamp sets revealed during this blog hop will be donated to cancer research!
