    Welcome to the Sparkle N Sprinkle “Sparkling Wintry Sensations” blog hop!

    For my sparkling wintry card, I created a sheet of faux postage stamps using the pine forest image and a small, rectangular cut out (or reverse mask). I inked the forest w/ several colors of green pigment inks then stamped it inside the mask. I just moved the mask and repeated 5 more times. The wording and numbers were inked w/ a dk pink marker and stamped on top to complete the “stamp” look. I used a perforating blade in between the stamps and cut the outside w/ postage stamp scissors.

    The sentiment was die cut and attached to a fancy tag die cut. (Cutting this die is super easy w/ the Grand Calibur!) The reindeer was inked w/ the pink pigment inks, stamped an cut out. I used a glue pen and Sparkling Snow glitter on the reindeer and to add snowflakes to my postage stamps. I used the Mauvelous glitter on the fancy tag and reindeer antlers. The peony colored layer behind the postage was die cut using a scallop border die. The finished card measures 4.25 x 5.5.

  • Pomp & Circumstance

    For today’s Ways to Use It Challenge (WT323) at Splitcoast, I went the easy route today and used a song for inspiration. I needed a grad card for my nephew and while making it, I kept hearing “Pomp & Circumstance” the whole time, lol. Since I was in the band all the way thru school, I bet I’ve played this song a million times.

    All images are Sparkle N Sprinkle. Anyway, I gold embossed the greeting and diploma and die cut w/ a Spellbinders circle. The ruffled gold is two cupcake liners that I split, removed the middles and put them together to form a lg circle. I used a MS diamonds edge punch on the black glitter dp and formed a circle w/ it. The final part of the medallion is just strips of metallic gold ribbon attached to the back. (I didn’t have time for a video, but I did take some pics so hopefully soon, I’ll have them up for you to see.)

    The black glossy layer is backed w/ a gold glitter dp layer. On the white layer, I used the CB swiss dots on top and the QK stripe label on the bottom. The stripes are very visible because I used them to line up and attach narrow strips of black and gold glitter dp. I saw some glitter striped dp in the store but it was the wrong color so I made my own to match. Finished card measures 5 x 6.5 (A6).

    Thanks so much for stopping by!

    Happy Saturday! Ready for a little Sneak Peek of one of the April releases for ISC?

    I  made this  little CAS card for the Inspiration Challenge (IC280) at Splitcoast. Love all those yummy cakes! This time I was inspired by Mountains.

    All images are Innovative Stamp Creations and are a Sneak Peek of the April line to be released on Monday, April 18. The little viney bg is the perfect size for an ATC but I’m using it as a small panel on my 4.25 x 5.5 card. I sponged 4 of the colors of the Kpad onto my ATC sized piece then stamped the image in black on top and cut out.

    The butterfly was done the same way and I added a little stickles to both. The white bg was embossed w/ a Sizzix folder and the sentiment was die cut w/ a Spellbinders oval and my Grand Calibur.

    Thanks so much for stopping by!
