Sparkle & Shine!
February 18, 2017
Hi there
I have a couple of sweet and simple cards to share today. I have combined 2 of the 3 fabulous NEW Sale-a-bration products that will be available for you to choose with a $90 product order from Tuesday 21 February.
The first product is this pack of 12, 6 x 6 sheets of gorgeous glimmer paper in Sweet Sugarplum, Mint Macaron and Bermuda Bay. You have to see this in real life to appreciate the gorgeous sparkle. It also co-ordinates with the Cupcakes & Carousels, Falling in Love and Succulent Garden suites from the Occasions Catalogue.
The second of the new Sale-a-bration options I have used is the 'Make A Medallion' photopolymer stamp set. It is a set of 8 stamps for 2-step stamping, giving you a number of combinations to use. It also co-ordinates with the Layering Circles Framelits dies and you get 3 versatile greetings to use as well.
Now for the cards I made. The first uses the Sweet Sugarplum glimmer paper and I co-ordinated it with the stamped medallion in Rich Razzleberry and Sweet Sugarplum. I used the new Hexagon Dynamic embossing folder for the crisp white background. Make sure you give the back of your card stock a light spritz with water for a fabulous result with this embossing folder.
The base card is Smoky Slate and I added a mat of Sweet Sugarplum to tie it all together. The greeting is heat embossed in white and punched out with the Classic Label punch. Here is a close-up of the glimmer paper.
The second card uses the stunning Bermuda Bay glimmer paper and the stamped medallion combines Pool Party and Bermuda Bay. I have chosen to leave some white space around the medallion, but you can crop it closer with a smaller Layering Circle framelit.
This time I used my favourite 'Softly Falling' embossing folder for the background to the flagged glimmer paper. Here is a close-up that shows the amazing sparkle.
Which colour do you prefer? I can't choose - they are both so pretty. These thank you cards will be winging their way to some lovely customers in the near future.
