Sparkle and Shine Challenge #2

Good Morning everyone,

By now you should have heard about the new Sparkle and Shine challenge blog. This is for all you who love sequins. Today I am sharing my card for their second challenge as design team member of Winnie & Walter. Winnie & Walter are sponsoring the second challenge and it is a sketch challenge.

Here is my take on the sketch challenge.

I have used the flowers from The Party stamp set to white heat emboss on watercolour paper. Then watercoloured them using Zig Gansai Tambi water colour. I also repeated this process on a separate piece of watercolour paper and cut three flowers out. 

For the sentiment, I added the tag in the middle with die cut the "Happy" from Winnie & Walter. Stamped the smaller sentiment on a strip of white card stock and adhered using foam adhesives. I then framed the sentiment with the cut out watercolour flowers.

Finally, I added Pretty Pink Posh sequins for each of the watercoloured flowers.

Check out Sparkle and Shine Challenge blog for more inspirations from Winnie & Walter design team and Sparkle and Shine challenge design team.

Sparkle and Shine Challenge!

Hello folks,

Today I have a card share for the very first Sparkle and Shine Challenge. I am playing along as Pretty Pink Posh design team. Pretty Pink Posh is the sponsor for this challenge. Pretty Pink Posh is perfect considering what the challenge is called :)

Here is the first challenge

And this is my take on the challenge.

I did not have a clover stamp set or die. So I decided to improvise and use heart punch to make my clovers. On my card I stamped the large flourishes from Papertrey Ink with green ink. Then spattered some green colour shine all over the panel and left it to dry. Then I sponged some Crushed Olive distress ink on a scrap piece of cardstock then punched out some hearts. Then sponged some Mowed Lawn distress ink on the heart and left them to dry. 

I then trimmed the dried stamped panel, added a strip of green glitter on one side. Then I glued the punched hearts in threes to form clovers and added Sparkly Clear 6mm sequins from Pretty Pink Posh at the centre. I also glued 4mm Mossy green sequins randomly all over the panel. The panel is mounted on the card front. I felt the card needed some dew drops. An easy way to add dew drops is glossy accent. That is what I have done. Sentiment is from Hero Arts.

You love sequins? then this challenge blog is perfect place to share you sparkly projects and shine :)
