Sparkling Falling Flowers

Sparkles, bling and pastels, what more could a girl ask for, talk about my favourite things! I am over the moon with these themes from the Global Design Project and Colour Inkspiration


Here is my project - it is safe to say enter my crafting room at your own risk if you don't want any traces of glitter following you out of there!


Glitter, glitter everywhere..... I made my version of glitter paper today! I started with a strip of Irresistibly floral Designer Series Specialty paper, using post it notes I covered the stripes and sponged the Inkspiration Challenge colours - LOVE this specialty paper, it is fantastic how you just sponge your colours on and you are left with a beautiful pattern - this product is retiring, stocks are getting low, so get it now before it is gone for ever


I wasn't done there, next a coat of Versamark and then on with Heat & Stick powder followed by Dazzling Diamonds - BLING!

I also inked with versamark when stamping my images from the gorgeous Falling Flowers set, I clear embossed and also added a little Dazzling Diamonds. I used a blender pen to colour the flowers, and cut with the May flower framelits (currently available as a bundle - you save 10%). Then after roughly laying out drew a curved line and cut the edge of some whisper white card stock, trimmed and adhered my flowers, then stamped the from Blooms and Wishes adding Dazzling Diamonds... of course! I glued my BLING strip to the card base, then layered the flower panel using adhesive foam strips. Just in case you didn't get enough BLING, here's another view:

      Thanks Kelly - the specialty DSP is awesome, and I can't get over how it looks so similar to glimmer paper with the glitter added

    Love your card - ingenious how you have done the glittery stripes - before I read your post I thought you'd coloured glimmer paper and cut strips!!
    I've only just ordered this set - how has it taken me so long?!

Fancy Folds Stampers Showcase - Hues of Happiness Circle Easel Card

Hello there crafters! You are going to love today's Stamper Showcase Blog Hop - we are all featuring FUN FOLDS, I just love a fun fold, I should really do more of them! I decided to a Circle Easel Card, it's a smaller card, but I think you will agree is just super cute, and with the Hues of Happiness DSP is just Gorgeous! This card is a relatively simple for a fun fold and comes together very quickly - I think I spent more time doing the floral arrangement than the actual fun fold itself. I took advantage of being able to die cut images directly from the Hues of Happiness DSP - I love it when we can do this with DSP, and aren't the flowers just stunning! I took 3 different flowers and some foliage and arranged to fit within the Basic White Circle cut from the largest circle die in Layering Circles Dies set, and the largest scallop die is used for the coloured section of the card. To create the card base you need to fold a piece of card stock and positon the largest die slig...

ESAD Holiday Catalogue Fancy Folds & 3D Projects

Welcome to the ESAD Holiday Catalogue Fancy Folds & 3D project Blog Hop. We're so excited to share our creations with you and we're certain that you will find great tips and inspiration from all our creations. The full lineup below will help you move along the hop, so grab a cuppa and enjoy! I've created a project using one of my favourite fun folds - a "z-fold", using the Snowflakes Sentiments Bundle The thinlits give the card lots to detail, and did take a bit of time to put together, but hey if I'm honest I overthink the the placement of the swirls and snowflake sentiments like 3 - 4 times before I stick them down, hahaha!, but I must say every minute was worth it, I am really happy with the finished card. Perfect Plum made the perfect companion for Soft Sky and Marina Mist and I also designed the height of the card so that when it folds flat it will fit in a normal C6 envelope Thanks so much for stopping by. I hop...

Hello crafty friends, I'm using one of my favourite layouts today with the simply gorgeous Hues of Happiness DSP . I decided to make the card using Pool Party cardstock to complement the blue flowers in a bed of purples, I think it turned out lovely. I added detail to the card front by using the Scalloped edge from the Scalloped Contours Dies , and heat embossed a sentiment in silver from the Color & Contour stamp set .  To finish I added a touch of bling with Rhinestone  Basic Jewels . Thanks for visiting today, I hope you enjoyed viewing my project. Stay tuned for more inspiration and tips this month.

The full lineup below will help you move along the hop, so grab a cuppa and enjoy! Well, what can I say...I'm in Love! The Parisian Beauty Bundle is just amazing.... I have so many ideas running around in my head for this set it's crazy, I have partially completed projects all over my desk, I finally knuckled down and completed this one to share with you today. This is my first attempt at a "DL" size card too, and I must say, I quite like the tall and skinny proportions of this card size. II wanted to use the new Champagne Rhinestones, so I I decided  on a Petal Pink and Crumb Cake colour combination. The background was stamped using the Stamparatus, so easy to get consitant spacing by just moving the plate a notch, and of so effective. I ...
