Stamplorations July Challenge #9

Hello Everybody, its time again for another challenge at


you gonna love it - its STAMPS and GLITTER!



I had to play around with my new STAMPlorations stamp set 
Boxed Blooms and Bold Sentiments. I stamped the rose on patterned paper and colored it  with pencil. I used square Lifestyle Crafts dies to emboss and cut out he frame. I mounted the cover card stock with foam tape to give more dimension. The sentiment is from the same set. Lastly I added Stickles - you gotta need glitter here.....


Her are some close up shots to show you more detail:



Head over to the blog - we have a fabulous Guest Designer this month - I am sure you all know her  - its the amazingly talented Kimberly Wiener from Wienerhoneymooners. And of course our DT has some wonderful inspiration for you as well!

And her is the fabulous prize for this month:

Well done for capturing the Stickles on camera - notoriously difficult! I love how you've coloured the rose and it looks beautiful framed like that.

Well, I'll see how it goes....                           Anyhow here is the card that came out of this: I did not want to add a sentiment - I 'll add it later, when I know who will get it.
