Each month a different image will be 50% off. This month- it’s the Skating Snowman. From 11/25 thru Sunday 11/29, Free Shipping on all US orders of $20 or more! Be sure to check out the great deals on the Clearance Stamps & sale stamps!And as always, we have a gift certificate up for grabs to a random player.
Since my greeting is big & mentions sparkle, I made it the main focus & everything on the card is super sparkly! The greeting could really be used any time of year, but I made mine a Christmas card by adding the embossed ornament background & the ornaments & greeting on the inside. I was lucky enough to have some glittery embossing powder that matched exactly the very glittery card stock I used for the backing layers & bow on top & all the stamped images were heat embossed using it.
Here’s the inside. These ornaments were originally intended for the front, but it started looking crowded so I put them on the inside.
Supplies:
| Stamps: Serendipity Stamps – Leave a Little Sparkle, Ornament Background, (inside – Have Yourself, Ornament Pops Outline, Ornament Pops Solid ) |
| Paper: Neenah white, glitter dp (DCWV -Christmas Glitter stack) |
| Ink: Colorbox peacock pigment ink (Distress ink dusty concord on inside greeting) |
| Accessories: Spellbinders A2 matting basics B, labels 28 & decorative labels 28 dies, Cheery Lynn Pretty Bows dies, peacock glitter embossing powder (Sparkle N Sprinkle) |
