Stampendous and Doodles Paper Playground Hop

Hi and welcome to the Stampendous and Doodles Paper Playground Blog Hop! You'll want to check out all that the Design Team has for you HERE and be sure to comment on the post for your chance to win some prizes.

During the Hop, Doodles Paper Playground is offering a 30% discount promo Off Sparkle Blends Friday-Sunday plus a free gift with every order, just use the Code: SPLURGE30.

Now on to my card, I made a shaker card using the  Intricate Snowflakes Rubber Stamp Set from Stampendous and started off by adding purple and blue inks to a white panel.  I then heat set or let dry, rub the panel with and embossing buddy and randomly stamp the two smaller snowflakes with VersaMark ink and emboss with Sparkle Puff Embossing Powder from Stampendous.  The Sparkle Puff Embossing Powder is really pretty in person, it's dimensional and sparkly, the camera just doesn't pick it up.

To make the shaker frame I used rectangle dies to create the frame and glued an acetate sheet to the back of it, then applied strips of foam tape under the frame.  The stamped panel was glued to a white card then Sparkle Blends: Birthstone Collection October: Opal pieces from Doodle Paper Playground, were spread around in the center of the panel then the frame is placed on top.

Lastly, the sentiment from the set was stamped on blue paper with VersaMark Ink, embossed with White Embossing Powder from Stampendous and popped up with 3D Foam Squares from Scrapbook Adhesives from 3L.  A sequin from the Sparkle Blends Set was glued to the sentiment.

Disclaimer- I get free goodies for blogging about craft products! Today I'm sharing a card made with products from Stampendous

Whimsy Stamps - WOW!

Welcome to the Whimsy Stamps and WOW Blog Hop!  I have two cards to share, the first is this congratulations on your new baby card.  It uses from Whimsy Stamps the Jungle Babies Clear Set, the Pierced and Stitched Circle Die Set, Quick Strips Die Set and 6 x 6 Paper Pack- Pretty Pastels.   The WOW embossing powders used are Opaque Bright White on the watercolored green circle and the sentiment on the tag.  Opaque Primary Frozen was used to repeatedly emboss BABY on the bottom half of the patterned paper.

My next card also uses the Jungle Babies Clear Set from Whimsy Stamps plus the Leaf Foliage 2 Die Set.  Leaves were die cut from white cardstock then the tops were rubbed with VersaMark Ink with the two larger leaves being embossed with WOW Perissa Embossing Powder and the two smaller ones embossed with Earthtone Pepper Embossing Powder.

Here's a close up so you can get a better look at the embossed leaves.
