A Big Birthday Wish 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 project to share with you featuring the new A Big Birthday Wish 931 stamp set. I'm very sad to say this will be my last post with Sparkle N Sprinkle. I have thoroughly enjoyed the last year using the amazing glitters, embossing powders and so many other items SNS carries. Though I'm stepping away, I will forever be one of SNS's biggest fans (and customer)!!

The papers I used to make the cards are from Lemoncraft, available in my ETSY store HERE.

For the base of the card, I used Tonic Verso Gothic Border Square dies. The bottom layer was cut with Super-Adhesive Sheets and then covered with Ballerina glitter. Isn't the pink sparkle pretty :)

The next layer is a Tonic Layering Basics Sunray Venus die, followed by a Prima Doily die cut with a Super-Adhesive Sheets and covered with Cloud Nine glitter. The next layer is a Tonic Simplicity Verso Love Arch Square die.

After dusting vellum with a Anti Static Bag, I used a Tim Holtz Stamp Platform to stamp the birthday sentiment with Versamark Embossing Ink Pad and then heat embossed it with Black Detail. Happy was heat embossed with White Detail.

The butterfly from the Violets for You stamp set was stamped on vellum and heat embossed with Black Detail. I used Spectrum Noir markers to color the back of the butterfly and then used a Nuvo Aqua Shimmer Glitter Gloss Pen on the front for sparkle.

The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts.

Merry Christmas Tree 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 Christmas cards to share with you featuring the Merry Christmas Tree DIGI906BG stamp set.

For my cards, I used a Tonic Jasmine Sunset Layering Die for the shape of the cards. Super Adhesive Sheets were applied to the base layer, and then covered with Gypsy Red glitter. For the next layer, I used a Prima Stencil and Nuvo Embellishment Mousse Seaspray Green for texture.

I applied a Super Adhesive Sheets to cardstock, and then cut it out with a Tonic Sunray Venus die. It was then covered with Irish Isle glitter. I used a Tonic Mixed Edge Oval to cut out the image. The frame was covered with Christmas Cheer glitter. Believe was also covered with Gypsy Red glitter and I used a Nuvo Crystal Drops Simply White to dot the I.

I first covered the Christmas tree with a Nuvo Aqua Shimmer Glitter Gloss Pen for some amazing sparkle. I love these pens!! Then I covered it with Nuvo Crystal Glaze.

It's pretty much impossible to tell in the pictures, but I used a Nuvo Smooth Precision Glue Pen and then added a strip of Crystal Ice glitter to the poinsettias.

Birds of a Feather for Sparkle N Sprinkle

Hello, everyone and happy Tuesday!! 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 new Feathered Friends stamp set.



For the base of the card, I adhered Tear-ific Tape ½” to the edges of cardstock and then covered it with Impulsive Purple glitter.

For the next three layers, I used Nuvo Shimmer Powders in Green Parade, Atlantis Burst, Violet Brocade and Blue Blitz. On the Shimmer Powders, I used a mixture of water and Nuvo Mica Mists in Nebula Blue and Fresh Pear.

Using a Tonic Jasmine Sunset Layering Die, I cut out a layer of the papers colored with the Nuvo Shimmer Powders and Mica Mists. I then used a Tonic Patterned Panels Deco Diamond to create a stencil, and adhered Nuvo Glimmer Paste Tanzanite.

Using a Tonic Sunray Venus die, I cut another panel and then heat-embossed the Feathered Friends image with Black Detail embossing powder. I repeated the steps before coloring them with Spectrum Noir markers, covering them with a Nuvo Aqua Shimmer Glitter Gloss Pen and fussy cutting the birds. They were popped up with foam tape for dimension.

The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts and the ribbon from DL.ART. I adhered Super-Adhesive Sheets over cardstock and then used Tonic Mixed Edge Ovals to cut the two ovals for the sentiment. The base was covered with Cobalt Glaze glitter. The top layer was heat embossed with Sapphire embossing powder. The sentiment was heat embossed with White Detail embossing powder. I also used Super Thick White embossing powder for added texture.
