Personal creations for your inspiration!

Hi everyone!

Well I had forgotten that we had so many family birthdays in January.

So I thought I would share my creations and hopefully spark your creativity.
 






Whilst I loved how all these cards turned out, these last three we more fiddly and time consuming, but so worth it!  

I love the reaction and appreciation you get for the time and effort you put into a making a personalised card.


 

I think the pink shoe shaped card is my favourite, but it even needed superglue in the end to adhere the large pink rhinestone.

I loved the reaction from my sister-in-law when she opened her pink envelope to see the sparkly shoe card inside.

If you have any questions, regarding any of these projects, let me know.

Until next time, get creating, and use some sparkle!

Welcome to 2013!

Hi everyone!

I am back, after taking a break over summer to spend time with my family.

I have been playing with some of my Create & Play Club items.

Tonight's creation has been made with:
Sparkling Spring Collection Stamps


One Layer Card
I masked a border with Post-it notes, and stamped my flowers and butterflies in Licorice Ink.

With a sponge dauber and Grape Ink I have sponged in some colour, darker at the edges to really make a sharp edge once the post-it's are removed.

Added some small black pearls to the centers of the bigger flowers.

Finally a spritz of Smooch Spritz in Vanilla Shimmer for a bit of sparkle. 

Hopefully the photos below show the sparkle and shimmer a bit better.

I am hope this card has inspired you to create!

I promise that I will not disappear for as long this time and will be back soon with more creations.
