I made this card for Susan's blog challenge from last week (on her blog Simplicity.) She has started a weekly challenge to do a One-Layer Card and each week will have one requirement. The requirement last week was to use glitter or flocking. I chose glitter. (This week's challenge is to use a punctuation stamp. I have done one for that challenge, too, which I will share with you next week. I have lots of cards to share!)
The flowers are stamped with my Essential Glue Pad with a stamp from Stampology, then glittered with some glitter from a Martha Stewart 24-pack. (I had a 50% off coupon a couple weeks ago and HAD to use it. Now I better keep using glitter!! What was I thinking!) I doodled the lines around the edges of the flowers and the flower centers and added Stickles to the centers. The glittered lines around the edges are done using Scor-Tape. Just put the tape down, remove the backing, and add your glitter. The sentiment is from Hero Arts.
This is the same card (different lighting, sorry.) I thought it was lacking something. I had another flower already stamped, glittered and cut out, so I added Pop Dots and put it on the card. The butterfly (from Repeat Impressions) was stamped on scrap paper and also onto the card front. I colored it with SU! markers and mounted it on Pop Dots. I used a glue pen and clear glitter on it. I think this is the card my mom is getting. My mother-in-law's card has been done since my birthday! See this post:)
I also want to remind you of Repeat Impressions sketch challenge, found here. It's a great chance to win a $25 gift certificate for their awesome stamps! Plus, it's a fun sketch!
Thanks so much for stopping by, and I hope you'll come back and visit again soon!
I sure like the additions you made to the card! Popping an image really give a card more "personality". :)
