Crafter's Companion- Merry Christmas Wreath

Hello and Happy Friday. I've been off on vacation and had a play with the Perfect Poinsettia Grande Poinsettia Die and Flower Forming Foam. 

I used the Pink foam from the Floral Bouquet Flower Forming set and highlighted it with Spectrum Noir  Plum Jam Water Reactive ink. 

I also used the sprigs from the Grande Poinsettia Die set die cut from Centura Pearl Card- Hint of Silver and finished off with the Yuletide Sentiment from the Winter Wonderland Collection.

SCRAP N' STAMP~ All That Sparkles Blog Hop

Happy Friday crafty friends! Today, we have a fun little blog hop 

Be sure to comment on all the stops on the hop to be eligible for one of 6 SPARKLY GIFT PACKS and 1 $25  Scrap N' Stamp Gift Certificate. 

 PLUS there's a challenge over at the SCRAP N' STAMP FB Group- the theme is ALL THAT SPARKLES...so get out your glitter, shimmer ...anything that sparkles!! 

So here's the card I made using a Spellbinder's Snowflakes Die as a stencil, Nuvo Glimmer Paste and Distress Oxides. 

I started with Smooth Bristol Paper and applied Spun Sugar, Worn Lipstick and Picked Raspberry Distress Oxides. I love this color combo for an ombre effect! I used one of the curved MFT- Basic Edge dies on the lower half.

 I then die cut a Spellbinder's snowflake die onto cardstock and used it as a stencil with Moonstone Nuvo Glimmer Paste to create that sparkly effect, I masked off the center before I applied the past so I could add my sentiment. I used "MERRY" from  the Concord & 9th Christmas Cottage set and stamped it onto the center of the snowflake with Versafine Crimson Red ink.  I then die cut the "Christmas" Sentiment from Silver glitter paper using the Birch Press Christmas Sugar Script Die. I also die cut it out from White CS several times and layered them all together to give it more dimension.  I then adhered the 2 panels onto my card base with fun foam and added a strip of the silver Glitter paper in between the 2 layers. 

For the inside of my card, I used the same Distress Inks from my card front with TH Mini Weathered Winter Snowflakes stamps. A sentiment from an older Cornish Heritage Farm stamp set. 

I hope I've inspired you to get crafty and play along with our ALL THAT SPARKLES challenge this month!

CRAFT STAMPER~Holiday Sparkle

Woohooo! It's time for another Challenge over at

This month, "anything goes" as long as you have used stamping somewhere on your project. Easy peasy right? 

Our prize this month is

For this month's challenge, I created some Christmas Winter Scenes with a whole lot of sparkle!! I must admit, it was hard to capture the glitter in photos, so I did manage one with the flash on...not top quality, but it works. lol

I started with a Bridge roadway stamp from my stash (sorry I don't have a company name as it was from a Goody Bag at a crop)- stamped it onto Bristol smooth  with Memento Toffee Crunch. I then stamped trees (Stampers Anonymous Tree Line and CTMH Frosted Kit) in different shades of greens (Versamagic  Spanish Olive and Versafine Olympia Green) to finish off my scene. 

I then added the panel to a sheet of Sookwang Adhesive and pour on the glitter. I burnished the glitter in place. For this card, I then took a sheet of white CS and used Spellbinders ovals to create the window and adhered it to the glitter panel. A poinsettia and greens from the TH Funky Festive Die set and  a sentiment from Penny Black in Versafine Sepia finished off the card.  

Here's the inside of the first card:

For the second card, I created the same scene the same way as above but kept it to the one layer and stamped the sentiment with Versafine Black Onyx and used the greens and pinecones from the same Funky Festive set.

Here's the inside of the second card:

Here's my attempt at capturing the GLITTER..Lol:

I sure hope I've inspired you to get crafty today!
