Well I’m well and truly still in a FOILING FRENZY here at the moment.  I am literally having too much fun!  I used one of the polka dot pattern panels (created in Word) and printed it using a laser printer onto vellum.  I foiled this in silver along with some bits from the Heidi Swapp Christmas Ephemera kit (I used Hot Pink foil for the deer – so gorgeous).  To add more sparkle I layered the sentiment panel onto some glitter cardstock and finished off with a few pink adhesive sequins.

Hey – well guess who COMPLETELY forgot to draw a winner of the Snowflake Flurry giveaway I posted a few weeks ago when I was guest designing for MFT Stamps?  So without further ado, the winner is …..

I was so impressed by your cards on the MFT blog I wanted to come here to tell you how much I LOVE them! My favorite is the Christmas scene you created, love the glittery, snowy “hills” you made with the Snowdrift die!! That’s one item I was able to purchase from this last release that I know I’ll be using again and again! My favorite thing about Christmas is the love and kindness that people exude at that time of year :)

Hi all and welcome to another week on the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge

Thank you for joining us for the STAMPtember® Stamp It Challenge and we hope you will all join us again this week too.

This week the challenge is

DIE CRAZY

We are showcasing W PLUS 9 PRODUCTS this week. You don’t have to use them to join in but if you have some we would love to see them used

I recently picked up this fabulous die set, the WPlus9 Pear Stackers from Simon Says Stamp and thought it would be perfect for an engagement card for my twin sister Susan who announced last week that she and her lovely boyfriend Pete are getting hitched next year! Woohoo!!!  I’m SO excited for them – and for the rest of us – who doesn’t love a good wedding?!!

I know it’s not your typical engagement card but I’m pretty sure she’ll appreciate it – they do make a perfect pair!  I started by sponging some Gold Delicata ink onto a panel of white card and then spritzed it with some Heidi Swapp Gold Lame spray.  I inked the edge of the panel with the gold ink too and stamped and embossed the sentiment in Ranger Gold ep.  I die cut the two larger pears and sponged on some Spun Sugar and Mowed Lawn Distress ink.  For the mottled effect I spritzed on some water and a few spots of the gold spray.  To finish off I added a bundle of gold thread underneath the pears and added some sequins for added bling!
