WOW Wednesday with Snow is Glistening

Flurry For You Card Tutorial


I couldn't resist playing with the new Bright Copper Shimmer Paint, especially when it looks so like with the Copper Foil Sheets.  I was unsure of how the Shimmer Paint would stamp, but it was so easy!  I put a bit of paint on a Stamping Sponge and dabbed it onto the stamp and presto!  It worked wonders!  Also sponged the Shimmer Paint onto the torn edges of the Merry Merlot and Very Vanilla Card Stock.  This fancy look is easy to make.  Full tutorial below.

Product of the Week


There's so much to share about the Snowflake Showcase, but there is not only one, but TWO stamp sets that are a part of this product suite.  So I'll be showing you all sorts of fun things this week with ONE stamp set and I'll be doing another week with the other one!  (Who am I kidding?  This whole month may just be snowflakes)

Merry Monday with Snow is Glistening

Blizzard of Wishes Card Tutorial


I'm so excited for the products coming out for November!  I absolutely love snowflakes and Snowflake Showcase is the limited time product suite only available in November.  There are so many awesome snowflake images in the Snow is Glistening Stamp Set, but here I've chosen to stick with the three individual stamps.  Create this look by stamping the three snowflakes all over a piece of Smokey Slate Card Stock in Versamark Ink.  Sprinkle on White Stampin' Emboss Powder and heat set with your Heat Tool.  Full tutorial below, but I'll be giving you the product list later in the week when all these fabulous products go live.  Add in the Snowflake Trinket and a banner of White Velvet Paper and your cards will be rich with texture and beauty.
