a note for you...

Today is day 5 of Art Glitter week over at 365 Cards!

Pam's Challenge:

Ingredients:

4 x 7 inch card
5 blossoms
glitter
wet embossed sentiment
3 different patterned papers

That Pam....she actually got me to remember where I stashed my heat gun...sheesh, it has been literally years since I last used it. I know some of you gals are heat embossing regulars....me? Not so much....It's funny, when I first started stamping, that's all I ever did...embossed EVERYTHING...


Are you wondering where the glitter is? Check out the vine detail on the Urban Prairie paper..I tell you, the Art Glitter rocks and the metal tip is FABulous!

Aha....you're thinking it is a naked button, aren't you? It isn't, I layered black Kaiser rhinestones on the button...4 rhinestones actually...

I hope that you'll play with me today!!! I can't wait to see what you create!!

Please check back tomorrow...I'll be interrupting my Glitter week with my first Get Sketchy project! Brace yourself for a fabbie sketch and a bonus challenge!

hitch your wagon to a star...

Today is day 4 of Art Glitter Week at 365 Cards!

Pam's Challenge:

Shape Up!

Make the dominant shape on your card a star, and give it some sparkle by adding glitter.

The chipboard stars are Stampin' Up and so is the Top Note Die....I still love that thing :) I found the quote which was part of a bigger sheet of quotes...maybe it is KI Memories?

I tell you, I love glitter so this has been a very fun week for me. I wanted to thank Art Glitter for supplying the Design Team with some goodies to play with....

Well, what a fabbie surprise!!!!
I received a wonderful email from Tina {hey sista!!}, who is a Scrapbook News and Review Staffer (and also on the Paper Make Up Stamps & Queen Kat Designs DT). I received the SNR "This Blog Rocks" Award...I'm honored and thrilled!!!

What a fun award and check out how gorgeous it is too!!!! I'm flattered...I truly enjoy blogging, inspiring and BEING inspired by others...

Thanks sooo much Scrapbook News and Review!!

This is Day 2 of Art Glitter week over at 365 Cards!

Pam's Challenge:

Try a technique: masking

I love this technique but don't do it very often because sometimes it can be labor intensive. What I do is stamp the image on a sticky note and fussy cut it out. I'll go ahead and stamp the image onto my cardstock and then lay the sticky note on top of it...for instance, I did that with the PTI Flower. Then I stamped the leaves right on top of the sticky note...peeled it back and there you have it :) I went crazy with the black glitter...love the stuff. The double faced satin ribbon is ala Paper Source.

Hello!




Welcome to 365 Cards Super Sketchy Sunday sponsored by Art Glitter!!!!!

Seriously, who doesn't love to work with glitter?! I absolutely LOVE the stuff. Here's the thing with Art Glitter...they have rockin' colors AND the most FABulous adhesive! The adhesive comes with a ultrafine metal tip that makes it super easy to use for detail areas...

I couldn't resist my favorite Hero Arts Owl. I wanted to glitter up her belly...just the perfect amount of glitter :) All the pattern paper that I used is Basic Grey Ambrosia, the owl is actually stamped on Speckletone Kraft. I hope that you join me in playing along with us on Super Sketchy Sunday!!!

Did you know that I love owls??? Check out what my SWEET kidlets made for my birthday:

Okay, check out that sweet clay owlie that my daughter made and THEN she even photog'd and framed it for me....SWEET!!!!
My boy made me this sweet card {check out his fussy cutting!!} and check out the canvas he did for me:

Yes, I know...
I'm one LUCKY Momma to have the kids that I have...I'll be honest with you, I cried...it was beyond sweet of them to have taken the time to make me owlies! I love that they both have such great creative souls...this has been one spectacular birthday...the best ever :)
