#GDP262

 Hi there Creators,

This time the Global Design Project is a Card layout.  I decided to try and use up some of my scrap pieces on my project this time, and I'm quite pleased with how it turned out, it certainly wasn't what I had initially thought I'd create lol

This is the layout: You can click on the picture to see what others have created too.

 

And here is what I created:  I've used the snowflake Splendor Designer Series Paper for the background, then one of the Forever Gold Laser Cut Specialty Paper wreaths (I've coloured the back and hence used it blue!) I've also used one of the snowflakes from So Many Snowflakes Dies, and who can resist the Blue Gems they are absolutely gorgeous!

 

I've shown you a close up of that gorgeous Blue Gem, and I've also used a bit of Wink of Stella on my snowflake, doesn't it make it glisten?!

I hope this inspires you into creating too.

God Bless love

GDP164 Entry

Hi Stampers
I've been meaning to enter the Global Design Project Challenge for a while, I did a few quite a long time ago, and keep getting the emails and forgetting, so this time it went on my list!, and I combined it with my thankyou card for the month!, so if you order from me in November, you can expect to receive this at some point.

However first up, the challenge...... This time it's a CASE "Copy and Selectively Edit" by Louise Sharp, here is her card.


I liked the layout of her card, so that is what I chose to go with for mine, I've also included a "sneak peek" of a new product called "Bloom by Bloom, which I received (for free) recently at the Stampin' Up! conference called "On Stage"  and here it is.....

I made 2 versions one in White and one in Vanilla, so then of course had to use 2 different ribbons! I think I prefer the white with the polka dot tulle ribbon over the Vanilla with the Calypso Coral Ombre Ribbon, which do you prefer?  The background paper is the beautiful Petal Promenade Designer Series Paper.

Also thought I'd mention how I created the graded effect on the flower

I started off inking the whole stamp with Flirty Flamingo, then daubed Melon Mambo onto the bottom of it, then stamped, giving that different grades of pink look, you have to make sure you dab it and not swipe, as it doesn't work if you swipe, you end up with an incomplete image.

Soon Sale a Bration and the new Occasions Catalogues will be here! if you have ordered from me in the last year, you will be receiving the new Catalogues through the mail (or in person) once I am able to order them, if not or you're not sure, and you'd like me to get one to you, do let me know, and I'll make sure I get them to you

Don't forget if you order during November and your order is over $125 you will qualify for my free Bonus gift, your choice of a Shimmer Paint, if your order is between $125 and $250 pop this hostess code in  RJZEGMNQ if it's over $250 you'll qualify for free hostess $'s for yourself, so don't put the hostess code in!

 I hope you have been inspired to create with this!

God Bless love
