Happy Thursday to all !
Today we have two new members to our "Happy" team. Welcome to Sue and Karen !! I look forward to seeing what you have in store for us. Welcome.
This week we have a sketch to play with and here it is......
I decided to open the beautiful Springtime Foils Specialty Designer Paper that I received free through the second Sale-A-Bration promotion. This fabulous paper is in the flier that will go live tomorrow. So if you need a look at it , please contact me or check out the catalogue button at the top of my blog, but it won't be there until the 16th. !!
Here we go....
Ok... I am being a little naughty...sorry my friends, but I did use the Glimmer paper that has been retired for the "amazing" sentiment and to mat Foil DSP. It was a scrap!!! But any of the Glimmer Papers would be just as pretty. ....right. Stay tuned...I have one to show you....
The card base is a very pretty Powder Pink and then I coloured some of the flowers on the fabulous Springtime Foils Speciality DSP..... I am in love with this paper. So many possibilities to create with this wonderful freebie from the new Sale-A-Bration flier. Call me!!!
The banners are from a foil scrap of Gold and a bit of Vellum.
I think some of the colouring really looks like watercolour...as the paper is shiny the blends really seem to flow. I did pop some dimensionals on the back of the circle I punched out. The beautiful sentiment is from the first Sale-A-Bration promotion...the Celebrate You thinlits dies.
I added some gold dots to some of the flowers to accent them a little more.
Now of course we have to put some fun inside.......
So here is a card using the Red Glimmer Paper.....
Isn't this paper a must have!!! Just imagine the colours you could use.
This CELEBRATE also comes from the Sale-A-Bration promotion. I have used all three thinlits in these two cards. I really love that the "font" is different with each word.
Now off to the rest of the hop.......I know you will make Sue and Karen feel welcomed !! Enjoy and thanks for stopping in...
Cheers from....
