Sending a Smile Your Way for Sparkle N Sprinkle

Hello, everyone and happy Saturday!! It's my turn to post on the Sparkle N Sprinkle Blog and I have a couple of cards to share with you today featuring the new Violets and Butterflies Bundle 00-856-925P23 stamp set.

For the base of the side step card, I used a Super-Adhesive Sheet and then applied Impulsive Purple glitter.

On the inside steps, I used Caspia Sea glitter. I brushed off the excess glitter with a Glitter Brush. Next, I cut a strip of paper, applied a Super-Adhesive Sheet and then embossed it with Spring Willow. After brushing vellum with an Anti Static Bag, I used a Tim Holtz Stamp Platform to stamp the butterflies with Versamark Embossing Ink Pad. They were then embossed with Black Detail. I used Nuvo Jewel Drops Simply White for the trails.

I used a Tim Holtz Stamp Platform to stamp the violets on cardstock with a Versamark Embossing Ink Pad and then embossed with Black Detail. Using a Nuvo Glue Pen Large, I sprinkled on Verdigris and heat embossed the base of the pot. The leaves and flowers were colored with Spectrum Noir markers. Using a Nuvo Smooth Precision Glue Pen to the inside, I sprinkled on Daisy glitter and then brushed a Nuvo Aqua Shimmer Glitter Gloss Pen over the flowers for added sparkle.

I sprinkled Nuvo Shimmer Powder Violet Brocade on watercolor cardstock and then spritzed it with Nuvo Mica Mist Violet Luster. Once it dried, I cut the Frantic Stamper Muse Mandala and added it behind the violets.

Using a Tim Holtz Stamp Platform to stamp the sentiment on cardstock with a Versamark Embossing Ink Pad and then embossed with Amethyst embossing powder. The edges were brushed with a Nuvo Hybrid Diamonds Ink Pad: Royal Plum. The sentiment was attached with Tear-ific Tape 3/4”.

Hello, everyone and happy Saturday!! It's my turn to post on the Sparkle N Sprinkle Blog and I have two cards to share with you today featuring the Spring Chicken Digital 914B stamp set.

For this card, I used Tonic Jasmine Sunset Layering Die. On the base layer, I used Tear-ific Tape 2” around the edges and then covered it with Luau Green glitter, using a Glitter Brush to remove the excess glitter.

I inked the edges of the top paper with Nuvo Hybrid Ink Pad Rose Garden Dried Oregano.

Sending a Winter Hi for Sparkle N Sprinkle

Hello, everyone and happy Saturday!! It's my turn to post on the Sparkle N Sprinkle Blog and I have a couple of cards to share with you featuring the Snowflake Penguin Rubber Bundle 868-913P20.

To make my cards, I adhered Tear-ific Tape ½” to the edges of cardstock and then sprinkled on Sapphire and heat embossed it. I then used Tear-ific Tape 2” to adhere the layers together.

For the next layer, I used a Tim Holtz Stamp Platform to stamp the large snowflakes from the Snowflake Penguin Rubber Bundle 868-913P20 with Versamark Embossing Ink Pad and heat embossed them with Silver Pearl embossing powder. Then I sprinkled Nuvo Shimmer Powder Blue Blitz over cardstock and spritzed it with Nuvo Mica Mist Nebula Blue. I inked the edges of the paper with Nuvo Hybrid Ink Pad Sea Siren Polar Ice and Laguna Bay. I stamped the smaller snowflakes from the Snowflake Penguin Rubber Bundle 868-913P20 and then embossed them with Silver Detail and cut them out with a circle punch.

Using a stencil, I applied Nuvo Glimmer Paste Moonstone for some added shimmer.

Isn't he a cutie??!! I used a Tim Holtz Stamp Platform to stamp Dancing Penguin Versamark Embossing Ink Pad and heat embossed it with Black Detail. He was then colored with Spectrum Noir Markers and I then gave his coat and hat some shimmer with a Nuvo Aqua Shimmer Glitter Gloss Pen. Using a Nuvo Glue Pen Large, I sprinkled on White Detail and heat embossed it...I love the look!! For the bell on his hat, I used a Nuvo Smooth Precision Glue Pen and then heat embossed it with Gold Coast.

To make him dance, I put him on a Action Wobble 1 ½”!! The icicles were covered with Sparkling Snow glitter. I used a Glitter Brush to brush off the extra glitter. The sentiment was embossed with White Detail over a strip of paper created the same way as the background with  Nuvo Shimmer Powder Blue Blitz and Nuvo Mica Mist Nebula Blue.

Sending Smiles for Sparkle N Sprinkle

Hello, everyone and happy Saturday!! It's my turn to post on the Sparkle N Sprinkle blog and I have a couple of colorful cards to share with you today featuring the Feathered Friends stamp set, and the Botanical Orchid Flowers stamp set for the sentiment.

I started off by adhering Tear-ific Tape ½” to the edges of cardstock and then heat embossed it with Amethyst embossing powder.

The background was created with Nuvo Shimmer Powders in Solar Flare,  Atlantis Burst, Violet Brocade and Cherry Bomb. I added a spritz or two of Nuvo Mica Mist Nebula Blue as well.

I had a happy accident when I went to spritz it with Nuvo Mica Mist Fresh Pear. The nozzle was clogged and it dripped out instead of squirting, but I love the look the drops added.

Using a Tim Holtz Stamp Platform and Versamark Embossing Ink Pad, I heat embossed the birds with Black Detail before coloring them with markers. I used Nuvo Hybrid Ink Pad Sea Siren Polar Ice to add color around the birds. They were framed with Memory Box Circles covered in Impulsive Purple glitter.

The sentiment is from the Botanical Orchid Flowers stamp set, and it was heat embossed with Black Detail embossing powder. The layers were adhered together with Tear-ific Tape 2”.

As a finishing touch, I added Nuvo Golden Years Confetti Ice White Circles.
