Snow Swirled.

I thought I ought to show some more Christmassy projects. I know there are still eleven weeks until Christmas but the time passes so quickly, there just won't be time for me to make enough cards for all my friends and family so I started early.

Though presents are another matter entirely! My family all seem to have everything!

I indulged my new passion for embossing with this card.

 



The card stock is Night of Navy.

The stamp set is the New Snow Swirled set, I stamped with my Versamark ink and added Silver Stampin' Emboss® powder and melted it with my Heat Gun. I added the sentiment from Greetings of The Season, Then gave the card a spray with the Vanilla Shimmer Smooch Spritz®.

I punched a star using my Merry Minis Star Punch from Silver Glimmer Card and added it using a Dimensional.

Hope you like it - I thought it was very effective.

A Real Papillon Potpourri.

A real Potpourri of new products here! In fact I think these were the first items I chose from the new catalogue!

You know when you see something, haven't got the faintest idea what you will do with it but just have to have it? Well that's me... most of the time! OK All of the time!

I am what is probably termed a serial hoarder and have to have 'everything'.

Anyway, enough waffle. Here is the card...

 

 

This was so quick and simple. Ideal if you don't have much time to create but want something stunning to give someone!

 

 

Here I Stamped one of the images from the Flowering Flourishes Stamp Set, two of the smaller Butterflies and a Sentiment from Perfectly Penned. I added 2 stamped and punched Butterflies from Papillon Potpourri, et voila!!

 

As a final touch I spritzed with a dash of Smooch Spritz® Vanilla Shimmer.

 

This would be a lovely card to make at a party - every guest gets to make and take a card and gets an envelope to put it in! (If I don't forget the envelopes, hopefully I won't do that again.)

I think you'll agree the sparkle adds that 'little something'. It's only £4.50 for a bottle and goes such a long way!
