Howdy folks - I have a fun little card to share with you today. This is one of the cards that we made at this month's Stamp Clubs - and it's about the shine! I tried something a little different for the top portion of the card - and think I may have overdone it slightly....I used my Versamark pad around the edges of the cardstock - much like if you were distressing the edges with an ink pad. Then I sprinkled on the Silver Embossing Powder and heated away. I just think I should have used a bit less ink/powder. It's a little much. I did use the Silver EP to stamp the 'seriously' stamp too. The arrows and hearts come from the Show & Tell Photopolymer stamps.
Oh - and I'm sure you are wondering where the 'seriously' comes from. It was in last month's My Paper Pumpkin kit. I am loving these kits - and I'm always so pleased when my kit shows up in the mail.

Well - for starters - everything is cut for you and ready to go, instructions included. Secondly, all you need is some adhesive to glue things together. (and guess what? I'll send you a complimentary tape runner just for signing up!) Also - the kits are small enough - they don't take up any room. Likely you will make your project up (it takes about a half hour to complete the projects) and display it, or send the cards off, or gift your project. Each kit is different - they won't always be cards! What's stopping you from having a little creative bliss delivered to your door each month?
Are you now wondering where those shiny chevrons are from. Guess what - it's one household item that about everyone has....Aluminum foil! Simply glue it to a scrap piece of cardstock, and run thru your Big Shot Embossing folder!
Be sure to stop back tomorrow and I'll show you how you can color the foil!!!
