Shimmer and Shine

I've mentioned earlier that this month's classes are all about shimmer paint and the cards I have for you today use just that! These are for my beginners class on Sunday.

The first card has Champagne shimmer mist sprayed on the moon and is CASEd from a lovely card by Sarah Wills that caught my eye as soon as I saw it - might have been something to do with owls, LOL! - but I have made a few changes.

The two stamps are both from a set called Punch Bunch, available for FREE in the SAB catalogue. A very simple card to make, but so cute.

The second card uses Platinum shimmer paint for all the stamping - ie medallion, en francais and the sentiment - applied with a sponge dauber. The silver on the embossed portions of the butterfly were applied with a blender pen.

Thanks for dropping in.

Whooooo Loves Kraft?

You can tell when I'm in silly pun mode, can't you, by the crazy blog post titles I come up with!!! LOL!

Anywhoooo (sorry!) today I have for you another of the projects I made from UStamp with Dawn and Friends Year End Blowout. Oh, and I forgot to tell you when I posted my first project, the Boxed Set (here), that I was lucky enough to be given a free pass to USWDAFYEB by one of the guest designers, Debbie Dawson. Many, many thanks Debbie, I am thoroughly enjoying the wonderful projects all the designers are posting, as well as being inspired by everybody else's versions of them. If you would like 40+ great projects then it is not too late to sign up - just click on the blinkie over to the right and it will take you to the info and sign up page.

So, as I was saying, today's project is a very cute and simple purse with matching card and envelope. The designer was Danielle Daws and you can see her gorgeous original here. I wanted to make mine just a wee bit different and I have used cherry cobbler, crumb cake, very vanilla and early espresso.

Here's the set:

You had to know I just couldn't stay away from those little owls for long! LOL! The owl stamp is from a set called Punch Bunch that is in the Sale-a-bration catalogue coming up later this month. Ain't it a cutie?

Well, thanks for dropping in and listening to my ramblings. Maybe I'll see you over at UStamp soon?
