Moved Nicole

Welcome to another Create with Connie and Mary Saturday Blog Hop!  This week our theme is ALL THAT GLITTERS. I went with a very unusual card for this one, I wanted to be totally different!  Check it out........ Not your usual Christmas card, right??  Well, I was in the mood to make a movement card so I thought about how I could incorporate the slider card dies into my card.  PEACE ON EARTH was the answer!  The earth in the SHOOTING STAR fit the bill. The card base was done in black so the silver foil paper would really stand out.  I added in silver glimmer paper and silver embossing as well.  There is even shimmer on the earth that was added with the clear WINK OF STELLA. I hope you've enjoyed this idea, making an unusual Christmas card was so much fun! My supply list is below so you can give this a try! SUPPLIES: STAMPS:  Shooting Star, Labeler Alphabet INKS:  Versa Mark, Black Archival PAPER:  Whisper White, Basic Black, Silver Foil, Silver Glimmer ACCESSORIES:    Sliding Star...

Welcome to another Create with Connie and Mary Saturday Blog Hop!  This week we have a really fun theme, SWING ON A STAR. All of our projects will have something to do with stars.  I actually have 2 cards to share today featuring the SHOOTING STAR BUNDLE !  I has so much fun with this technique that I had to make more than one! Now you can see why one wasn't enough!  I has way too much fun with this technique that I learned from Wendy Cranford.  I had to change up the last bit of the process a little to use only Stampin' Up! and it worked beautifully! This first card features the slider die cut where the star can shoot across the sky.  The galaxy watercolor technique makes the background so realistic!  I used watercolor paper (can you believe this was a pure white piece of paper!) and added LOTS of color!  The star was also done on watercolor paper so the colors would blend and look as beautiful as the galaxy background. Knowing full well that one card would not be enough, I m...

Welcome to another Create with Connie and Mary Saturday Blog Hop!  This month we are featuring the NEW IN COLORS!!  This week is SWEET SUGARPLUM and it's as sweet as it's name! This card was actually created without today's color and blog hop in mind.  I was experimenting with the SHOOTING STAR BUNDLE and the gorgeous new BLOOMS AND BLISS DSP and this card pretty much made itself!  I was going to post it one day last week then I realized it would be better to save it for the SWEET SUGARPLUM blog hop. Is this just too sweet or what!!!  I added a bit of RICH RAZZLEBERRY as an accent color and love the results! Up close you can see the designer paper underneath the penny slider that was created with the SLIDING STAR FRAMELITS .  It's full of flowers which is just perfect for the honeybee from SHOOTING STAR .  I also gave the bee a couple of Rich Razzleberry SWIRLY SCRIBBLES FRAMELIT flowers.  The card is really super simple and yet wonderful interactive! If you hav...
