Karolina made a lovely tag to share today. She added a touch of Distress Ink to the background and used Finnabair’s Metallique Acrylic Paint, Impasto Paint and Acrylic Paint Sparks makes the project more three-dimensional and shimmery. She added interest using Texture Paste and Graphite Sand through a mask and added a sprinkling of Broken China Distress Glitter as the final touch, and here we are! The perfect tag is ready!

Andrea explored the quirky dark side of sparkly with her notebook cover featuring Stamping Bella’s Oddball Sparkle Fairy stamp.  She also used Dina Wakley’s Spaced Dot stencil and lots of Dylusions ink sprays.

Anna-Karin made a tropical beach tag, with not only a little sparkle, but a whole lot of sparkle. The palm tree was die cut with Tim Holtz Sizzix Tropical set, and covered with both Rock Candy Distress Glitter and Sprinkled Sugar Stickles.

Barbara has created a sparkling tag using Tim Holtz Sizzix Seashell die, Ranger Perfect Pearl powder, Idea-ology Paper-Dolls and Stampendous Pearlized Mica Fragments.

Cheiron created a sparkly Distress Oxide Panel for the background of her card using Distress Oxides and Clear Rock Candy Glitter. She framed the card with a frame that was die cut with the Stacked Postage Thinlits dies and Paper Cut Bird Thinlits die. To finish it off, she added a few flowers from the Funky Floral 1 and Funky Floral 3 Sizzix Thinlits sets and a Quote Chip.

Emma created a special card for her parents, who are celebrating their 50th wedding anniversary. She used Tim Holtz Vintage Platinum Distress Glitter Dust to cover Typography Findings and then added even more sparkle by sprinkling Tim Holtz Clear Rock Candy Glitter onto the stamens of the handmade flowers die cut using Tim Holtz’s Funky Floral 3 die set.

Kath created a Cocktails At Sunset Party card using Distress Oxide inks, Tim Holtz/Stampers Anonymous Cocktails Blueprints, Crazy Cats,Crazy Things and Handwritten Thoughts with Simon Says Summer Gold Sequins for added sparkle

Lols made a card using a Tropical Birds Cling Stamp Set.She coloured the image using Zig Brush Markers and for the background she simply spritzed with Tumbled Glass Spray . She randomly stamped some script and then used a Dot Fade Stencil and White Embossing Paste to add texture. While the paste was still wet she sprinkled Prisma Glitter generously all over the top, super sparkly in real life! She finished by machine stitching around the edges. 

 

Macarena made all her shimmer with Prima Opal Magic Violet – Gold paint with some touches of Prima Shine On Rub On Foil on the Simon Says Stamp Green Apple card stock embossed with the amazing Tim Holtz Sizzix Botanical 3D texture embossing folder.

Maura made a tag inspired by her trip to India last year. She used Gwen LaFleur’s Stencil Girl Boho Mandala Circle and Art Deco Peacock Feathers stencils, with Simon Says Stamp’s Henna Patterns stamp set and Dina Wakley Gilt heavy body acrylic paint.

Meihsia was inspired to make a mixed media card with a little sparkle of Ranger Snowflakes Tinsel Embossing Powder and Simon Says Stamp Pixie Dust Sequins.

Sandra made a card using the new Botanical 3D Texture Fade, and she added a little sparkle using the Clear Wink of Stella Glitter Brush.

Zoey used Stampendous Frantage Embossing Enameling kit and Stampendous Aged Rose Embossing Enamel to add some sprarkle to this little altered wood coaster
