Sparkle



Stamps are by Woodware
I've used Glitter Kiss on plain black card to make the pink glitter layer

Mum



I wanted some large sparkly centres for paper flowers and decided to make my own.
These were really simple to do, just used a hot glue gun to drop some blobs on a silicone sheet, then covered with glitter.





And this was the card I wanted the sparkly-blob centres for. It's an 8 inch easel card,  I used Go Kreate dies to make the card blank.
Papers are all Lili of the Valley, stamps are a mix of Waltzingmouse and Papermania.

Thanks



I struggled to get a decent pic of this card.

I've stamped a Hero Arts sentiment, covered with a self-adhesive sheet, trimmed to size, and then smothered with glitter.

Embossing folder is SU.

Hugs



Die is by Simon Says Stamp
I used it to cut some double-sided adhesive sheet attached to a piece of card. I gradually pulled back a section of the release/ backing sheet at a time and added one colour of glitter before pulling back another section and adding the next colour.

Thought this would make a nice notelet card rather than a specific occasion card.

Birthday



I had some left-over scraps of spritzed cardstock from previous cards plus some left-over glitter card.
Normally scraps get thrown into a baggie, all the baggies sorted by colour, but this time I decided to use them straight-away.

The 'happy' die is by Simon Says Stamp and the 'birthday' is Papertrey Ink.
The scallop border is Spellbinders.
Spritzing ink by Docrafts.

Christmas


Vellum quote is by Papermania as is the ribbon.
Embossed background made with Cuttlebug and some glitter glue.
I'm not happy with this one - it just doesn't look Christmassy to me!

Christmas


Die-cut decoupage from Nitwits, spotty paper is also Nitwits. I've added some glitter for interest.

House Mouse


Another House Mouse ("Mouse Bounce") image and again coloured with Copics.
I've added some glitter and also some Glossy Accents to the thimbles and the pins but you can't see this on the pic.
The patterned paper is by Papermania and the buttons are just from my big button jar.

Bookatrix

I have to admit I'm not a huge fan of these cards and I have to be in the right mood to make one!
This was a special request for a customer.

The reason I am not keen on making them is because I don't like to see uneven edges on things and even if I really take my time I am never happy with my cutting out. Now I know why nearly all the samples I have seen have peel-offs around each layer. I don't have any peel-offs though so made do with a bit of glitter glue instead, it does help hide the edge a bit.

You can't tell from the photo but the white card is pearlised and I embossed a subtle swirl pattern over it using white ink and embossing powder, just takes the plain-ness off without being in your face.
The finished card does look nicer in real life I have to say, from the pic you can't see the dimension or the details very well.



This was the matching box (I think I like the box better than the card LOL).
All writing was computer printed and the butterflies are a Martha Stewart punch.

Christmas


Rubber stamp by Penny Black.

Dreamweaver





Dreamweaver stencil and embossing paste plus ultra-fine glitter.

Christmas








Dreamweaver embossing stencil and embossing paste.
I have used low-tack tape to attach the stencil to card and then covered it with embossing paste, carefully removed the stencil and then covered the image with ultra-fine glitter or Glamour Dust.
The stencils need to be washed immediately after use in warm soapy water (otherwise when the paste sets the stencils are knackered!).

Christmas


Image was made using a Dreamweaver stencil and double-sided adhesive sheet.
I placed the stencil on one side of the sticky sheet and sprinkled fine white glitter over it.
I then removed the stencil and covered the rest of the image with fine black glitter.
The adhesive sheet was ultra sticky so it wasn't easy removing the stencil from it without wrecking the stencil!
Lovely effect though, in real life it is very sparkly.
