Poinsettia Happiness

Can you tell I love shimmer & sparkle?  Here's that beautiful Stampin Up poinsettia image that I embossed twice on vellum and sponged with Pool Party.  The inner petals of the flower can be trimmed and popped onto the larger flower to add more dimension.

But, wait... what could add more sparkle?  The beautiful rhinestone charm for the center of the flower:

Thanks for visiting.

Hope your day has sparkle & shimmer, too.

Festive Flurry Love

What I love about these snowflakes are the dies that coordinate!  Continuing along, I coordinated the inks and papers as well.  Here I took Baha Breeze ink and stamped on Whisper White for the top snowflake.  Then, I took Whisper White ink and stamped it on Baha Breeze for the next layer of snowflake.

Of course there is a little gray in Winter - but I added shimmer with a touch of silver metallic ink in the background.  How pretty are those grays?

And, how much do I love the love?  Don't you think it's just lovely!

Thanks for stopping by.  Would love to hear your comments!

Have a warm season!

Dictionary Snowman

How happy is this snowman (or woman)?  Can you see the shading behind the snowman?  I took the ink pad and swiped it across the folder to give the background increased depth.

And, isn't it wonderful when snow sparkles (maybe why he's so happy).  At the top of the hill, I applied Dazzling Diamonds to give that extra shimmery detail.  Corner punch on the right and sponge the edges for a completed look:

Have a wonderful season!

UPDATE 11/5/15:  I just started adding cards (well, one card so far... lol) to my new Etsy shop (well, not exactly a new shop ... but this baby card is my first listing).  I will be adding other items as time & interest allows.  Here's the blog post for the baby slider.  Thanks for stopping by my blog and the shop.
