November MPP - Another one Finished

Well between Thanksgiving and all the craziness leading up to it. I have finished all my cards.  I have so much fun making them...all though sometimes it is hard to get my creative juices flowing...then I wake up in the middle of the night and have an idea!  I used the Dark Tulip Stamp Set 327 from SparkleNSprinkle.  Wander on over to their website they are having some great sales!


Everyone have a great weekend...and look for more of my cards to be posted this weekend!

November Challenge

I have been busy working on finishing my November Design Team submissions.  My problem is that I keep changing them!  I am done with that and just need to type up the instructions!

I love embossing through my cuttlebug and then sprinkling sparkly embossing powder over  what I am working on.  My favorite is: EP 107 - Sparkle!  I decided to incorporate embossing into the design challenge as well as using some of the new wonderful velvet glitter - which is just amazing.  I used Stamp Set 385 - Merry Crows.  I love this set because it is so whimsical!   All these wonderful goodies can be found at SparkleNSprinkle.

The finished card (instructions will be posted later):


Wishing all of you a wonderful and blessed Thanksgiving!

Christmas Tags

I thought I would start getting in the Christmas spirit of gift giving early by making Christmas tags.  Why should I buy them when I have all the wonderful glitters and a great stamp set from SparkleNSprinkle???? I used the set for my design team submission for October.  So my creative juices were flowing and I made a set of tags three tags with stamped images and three tags making rosettes and snowflakes behind the rosettes with glitter and brushable glue from SparkleNSprinkle http://www.sparklensprinkle.com.  Wander over to their website and look at their fabulous stamps, glitter and other goodies!
