Happy Monday Everyone. Hope you had a great weekend. I did!! Saturday was my birthday and the weather turned cool. It was a beautiful day filled with birthday wishes, yummy cupcakes and dinner at my favorite restaurant where we got to sit outside and enjoy the gorgeous weather even more. I loved it. So in honor of both the cooler weather and beautiful cupcakes, my card features fall leaves and is based on this week's challenge at Cupcake Inspirations. DRS Designs is the proud sponsor for this challenge. If you play along, you could be the winner of a $20 coupon to DRS Designs on line store. Nice! Here's the yummy cupcake for inspiration.
The challenge this week at Cupcake Inspirations is to use glitter on your card. I don't know about you, but I am horrible with glitter. I get it everywhere - all over my craft table, the room, my clothes, in my coffee and on my poor pup who usually hangs out in the craft room with me while I'm creating. So in light of that, I decided to use glitter embossing powder instead of just straight up glitter. I still managed to get glitter all over the place, but not nearly as much as usual! Anyway, here's my card:
I started with some water color paper, added some TH DO inks, stamped the Open Leaf image with VersaMark ink, and then heat embossed them with the gold glitter EP. These were die cut with a SB circle die and added to the cream panel that was embossed with a SB leaf EF. This cream panel was added to another cream panel that was embossed with the same gold glitter EP as the leaves. The greeting was stamped and embossed just like the leaves. Here's a close up of the greeting.
I hope you can find some time to join in the challenge this week. And I hope you have better luck with the glitter than I do! LOL!
Thanks for stopping by.
