Stampotique - Sparkly Gems

Hi Everyone,

I made this card using the pretty gems from the Stampotique November release - they are on the Treasure Cube .


I first heat embossed the gems in gold. Then I used Color Burst for my background and move the colors around a bit with a paint brush. Added embossed gold splatters - for that you splatter water on your card and add embossing powder. Heat it up until it melts. Easy. I heat form the back, so the powder doesn't fly away.
The sentiment I gold embossed as well. It's from Quotes 1. Love all those sentiments on there...


I hope you are keeping your sparkle!!!!

Well, if your recipient didn't sparkle before he/she got this card...they soon would. Love that gold on the vibrant colors and you couldn't ever find a better sentiment.

Hi Everyone, I made a bunch of Easter cards, after all its little more than one month and I need to send them out in time... You see, they are all similar - using both the die cut and the negative, that I cut from a die cut egg.

Dynamic Duos combined with CAS Colours and Sketches

I am getting the hang of combining challenges....not sure if that's good or bad... In the past I would just put all my "creative energy" into one challenge and then just link up with others, if the card just happened to fit...but now I do that on purpose. 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.
