SU Only Challenge

 SUO Challenge 55

As the title suggests - The SUO Challenge this challenge is for Stampin' Up! Only inspirations - ie. the use of Stampin' Up! products only - so thankfully, I'm in luck! 

The challenge this week is "Mmm, feel that Texture!" 

I made this card for my sister-in-laws birthday. We love spending time together and the odd glass or two of Moscato (or mosquito as I call it!) - so notice the bubbles I have used in the glasses! I also topped off our sweet lemons with Dazzling Diamonds and Crystal Effects.

Cheers - Happy Birthday Heather!

Inside:

The most common form of adding texture to a project is to use an embossing folder. There are so many great ones in the catalogue - pop on over to the SUO Challenge and see what fabulous creations everyone has done. 

Stamp Set: Happy Hour

Accessories: Dazzling Diamonds, Crystal Effects, Seam Binding Ribbon

Papers: Floral District DSP

Colour Combination: Whisper White, Melon Mambo, Daffodil Delight, Pool Party

Product Spotlight - 12 Weeks Of Christmas - Week 1

If you missed my last product spotlight, I noted that I would do it once a fortnight, however I am going to do 12 Weeks of Christmas countdown and incorporate it into my product spotlight. So tune in eack week for my Christmas countdown.

12 Weeks - What!? I know, that's crazy!  

My Product Spotlight is the new Stampin' Up! Champagne Glimmer Paper on page 18 of the Holiday Catalogue. I have used it very subtly here on each card. I don't think you need to use alot to get a stunning effect. Use it as just a trim on your Christmas cards and it makes them dazzle (more than before!! Hahaha)

The above cards are part of my Deluxe Christmas Card Classes. If you would like to book for any classes, please contact me. M: 0410 613 140

Thanks for stopping by.
