Vivid Vases

Hi there!
Today's card is for the LESS IS MORE challenge 'Paper Piecing':

I love paper piecing and thought of this stamp straight away for the challenge. After colouring the flowers with my Stampin' Write Markers I added some Wink of Stella then covered the vases in Crystal Effects to make them shine.

Thanks for visiting and I hope you have a great day!

Stampin' Up! Sparkly Seasons Bundle

Good afternoon and happy Sunday!
I have another Sparkly Seasons card to share with you today:

I am not completely happy with this card for two reasons - 1. the Crystal Effects has made the red and green run and 2. I should have placed another silver ring around the globe as I can see smudges of Crystal Effects :-(

I used the fabulous SPARKLY SEASONS BUNDLE:

I also used the SOFTLY FALLING SNOW embossing folder:

Stampin' Up! Remarkable You

Good evening and welcome to my 'Feminine Friday' post:

I am really into black and gold at the moment and I think it is because of the Stampin' Up! WINTER WONDERLAND DSP:

For my card today I started off with the sketch at FRESHLY MADE SKETCHES:

My flower is from the gorgeous REMARKABLE YOU stamp set:

I stamped it with Versamark ink pad and then heat embossed it with gold embossing powder - there are a few stray speckles but I quite like the effect!

Next I covered the flower in  Crystal Effects and while this was still wet I sprinkled it with Gold Stampin' Glitter.

As I used lots of snippets on my card I will also enter PIXIE'S SNIPPETS PLAYGROUND:

Thank you for joining me today and I hope you have a fabulous weekend!

Vivid Vases

Good afternoon and welcome to my better late than never 'Feminine Friday' post!!:

I decided to use the VIVID VASES stamp as it is in this weeks WEEKLY DEALS. The image is stamped onto VELLUM and then heat embossed with IRESECENT ICE EMBOSSING POWDER. Then coloured in using my Blender Pen and inks all topped off with some lovely CRYSTAL EFFECTS.

It is raining cats and dogs here in Devon today so I'd better stay in and craft :-)
Hope you have a lovely weekend and thanks for stopping by.
