I was just in love with this stamp set!!!  It just makes for pretty winter pages and some many ways to used glitter and embossing powder!

You can find all the instructions about my page 

HERE

I used copic markers to color all my images.  On this page I also used the Grand Madison Window die.  I just love how it makes those lovely window scenes.  On this scene Diamond Dust glitter gave the look of glittery snow.  I could not resist using that sweet snowman for last month's release Snow One Like You.  

 The glitters used on the sweet snow maiden were, Fascination glitter on the body and hat.  For the rest of the body, scarf and mitten Sparkling Snow glitter was used. 

The sparkly flowers were all cut from Tim Holtz's Tattered Flower Die.  I used sticker paper to cut them, remove the protective backing and apply Gypsy Red Microfine glitter.  I also used Sparkling Snow and Evening Glow glitter.  I punched some pine branch from a punch and glittered with Green Iris glitter.

Using Sizzix's snowflake die cut 

and the swirls from the Love Sizzlit 

I created this pretty area for the title 

to rest.  I used Reflection Microfine 

glitter and Sparkling Snow glitter.

 

This really made a beautiful area to rest my title!!

Quick look at the flowers on the top of the page.  The glitter ribbon was created using 1/4" Tear-ific Tape and Gypsy Red glitter.  The border was made using a border punch.

 

Hope you all have enjoyed seeing my page as much as I enjoyed designing it!!!  If you would like to get more instructions on how to make it, you can find it HERE.

Good luck to you all, and hope to see you again next month at,SNS Creative Challenge ~ Anything Goes.

Thanks for stopping by, hope you all have a very blessed day!

Good morning all, hope you all are having a great start to your week!  It was a busy weekend, twins birthday party.  We had such a fun time and they were so cute.  It is a blessing being a grandparent!!

It is time to get started on all those Christmas cards, it will be here before we can turn around.  I knew I had to make a pretty glittery card with my cute little Snow One Like You set from Sparkle and Sprinkle.  This set is just adorable.  It had to be "sparkly" so I used the lacey glitter background, see the  SNS Tutorial for details on how to make. The background colors are Jasper Blue glitter and Reflection Micro fine glitter, they really make a beautiful background for my sweet little snowman.

The snowflakes were stamped with black ink and glittered using a glue pen and Reflection glitter.  For the center I  used Dimensional Glue and Jasper Blue glitter.  The sentiment was stamped with black ink on a die cut oval.  I placed 3/4" Tear-ific Tape on the oval, removed the backing and covered with Cloud Nine Micro fine glitter.  Once the glitter was rubbed onto the oval I stamped the sentiment.

I used copic markers to color the snowman. Using a glue pen, I added Reflection Micro fine glitter and Twinkling Clouds to the body of the snowman.

Have a great rest of the week, and thanks for stopping by!!!  

Remember to.....Keep Stamping!!

The Chill Of Winter

Hope you all have had a great Columbus Day!!!  Most of the children were out of school today, here in Houston!  My twin grand babies will be celebrating their 3rd birthday tomorrow, so we went shopping today.  My little granddaughter loves to shop (yay)!  Can't believe they will be 3, how they have grown.  They were so tiny when they came home from the hospital.  Looking forward to the celebration tomorrow and their party on Saturday.

I did manage to complete a card today!!  This month's SNS Technique Video Club by Jazzy Jill showcased this card and this cute stamp set.  When I saw it I knew I had to make it!!!  It is so cute and so easy to make.

On my card I did add a frame around the globe.  Using some blue glitter cardstock and Spellbinders Fancy Circle Die Cut.  You will layer your card with your white cardstock which was embossed with the snowflake embossing folder, place your circle die cut and cut through both layers of cardstock. The clear embossable acetate is wonderful.  I stamped the snowflakes from Snow One Like You set onto the acetate with versamark ink and embossed with White Spark EP.  It really turned out pretty! 

For the inside of the card, I wanted lots of sparkle around the cute little snowman.  I took my Cuttlebug snowflake embossing folder and used brushable glue and Sparkling Snow glitter.  Take a brush and brush the glue all over your embossing folder dust with the glitter and run your cardstock through your machine.  The results are just beautiful.  Be sure to wash your folder right away so the glue with not ruin your folder!

My cute little snowman was colored using copic markers.  Draw in your snowbanks with a pen. The glitters used on the snowman were,Sparkling Snow, and Waterfall.  Stamp your sentiment and you have the cutest snow globe ever!  

I hope you all will take the time to see Jill's video, you can find it HERE!  

Thanks for stopping by, I hope you all have a wonderful week, and remember....Keep Stamping!

I will be entering this card in the: ABC Christmas Challenge - T for Transparent

I really love this stamp set!!!  Those little snowmen are just adorable and will looks so cute on any of your holiday or winter pages!  There is plenty of glitter, and more glitter!  You will want to view the SNS tutorial on how to create the glittery photo frame!  This is a wonderful technique and adds so much sparkle to your page or card background.

The little snow banks were made using white CS, tear your CS to make the banks.  You will want to add sparkle to the edges, I used Sparkling Snow.  The edges were inked with blue pigmented ink.

 

The snowmen were stamped with black ink and cut out. They were then colored with copic markers.  To add that sparkle to the hat, scarf and mittens, Reflection glitter was used.  The smaller snowman was popped up with a pop dot.  

                                               

 Those oh so sparkly snowflakes, were glittered with Reflection glitter and a rhinestone added to the middle!  I also added liquid glass to the larger snowman's eyes.  Stamp and ink that sweet sentiment "Baby it's Cold Outside".  Just a little more sparkle on that snowflake!
