Big Glittery Bloom!

I just can't seem to get enough of this Big Bloom image by DRS Designs and glitter lately. I used Yellow Stickles when I made this card, but today's card went back to the basics--a glue pen & a little jar of fine pink glitter. There was a nice coat of glitter dust all over my scrap room when I was done with this card! It all makes me feel like a kid again!


This card was pretty basic to make--Primsacolor Pencils and Gamsol to create the flower background, then I used glitter to outline each flower petal. Black grosgrain ribbon finished off the background panel, I layered it with pink and black cardstock and then stamped the Friendly Note Sentiment below it. This is such a fun card--wish I could show you the sparkle in real life!

Stamps: DRS Designs- Bloomin' Huge Flower (M1023), Just a Friendly Note Sentiment (D586)
Ink: Versafine Onyx Black, SU!
Paper: Smooth white cardstock by Office Depot, Colored Cardstock by American Crafts
Accessories: Prismacolor Pencils, Gamsol, Ribbon By Bobbie M. Designs, Barbara Trombley's Ultrafine Opaque Art Glitter in Carnation
Finished Card Size: 4.5" x 7"

Well, we are busy here at my house. T minus 3 days before my Sister-in-Law's wedding. I'm her Matron of Honor, and she'll be getting ready for her big day at our house! I keep telling her that it's going to seem like Hollywood here that day! :-) DH and I are so very excited, but there's a ton to do around the house for a day like that! I'm not sure how much stamping time I'll have over the next week or so--I do have a few scheduled blog posts here & there, but please know that over the next week, things will be a little more quiet than usual on my blog. We have family coming in from out of town who will be staying for the week, so I won't be spending a lot of time in my scrap room until they leave--which will be around August 15th. That's a long time to go without stamping, so watch out! I'll be a stamping fool after they leave and I'll have tons to show you very soon!

I hope you all have a fabulous week!

Thanks for visiting today.

Smiles,
Jennifer
