Warm Wishes

Good morning everyone, hope your day is off to a great start.  I would like to share a card with you using the new Winter Bird House stamp set from Sparkle N Sprinkle.

To get my card started I need to create my background panel.  Using the supplies in the below picture, Super Adhesive Sheets, Sparkling Sand Flocking and a embossing folder the panel was create.

Here is a finished background panel.  The soft sparkle is so pretty!!

Next the image was stamped and colored using Tombow markers along with Tattered Angel Pearl Mist instead of water.  This created a beautiful watercolor look along with some soft shimmer.

Sparkle was then added using Nuvo Small Glue Pen, Sparkling Snow and Waterfall glitter.  Small drops of Green Apple Crystal Drops were added to the bird feeder let dry and then Glossy Accents were placed on top of the Crystal Drops to give a glass look.  Drops of White Crystal Drops were added to the image panel.

The sentiment was stamped and glittered using Nuvo Small Glue Pen and Waterfall glitter.  Small branches were die cut using Heartfelt Creations die and a pull ribbon was added to the top right corner.  This is a beautiful stamp set, be sure to stop by the SNS to see all the new stamp sets.

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

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.

Thanks so much for stopping by enjoy the blog hop, your next stop is the very talented JESS!!
