4 cards!
Yes, I thought today would be a good time to try and cut into my Bazzill bling stockpile. I like it.... I really do, but some of the colours are just so hard to match with anything paper-wise.
Anyway, I chose a frosty blue as today's inspiration and looked at trying to catch up with the Sketch This card sketches I missed last month. These cards are brought to you in association with my current favourite pot of Stickles:
Star Dust
First up - sketch 23. Queen and Co. winter papers plus a cute stamp from Hampton Art, some Paper Salon stamps, plus the ribbon border stamp from Paper Trey, and let's not forget that MM snowflake brad, a little jewel on the greeting and some Stickles - the essential must have item for all your Christmas card needs!
This is sketch 25. KI background paper, aqua cardstock from Doodlebug stamped with BF blizzard snowflake stamps in aqua ink accented with Star Dust Stickles, then one of a gazillion MM eyelet words attached with my favourite Jolee's of all time, the snowflake set!
With the rest of the cardstock I made some gift tags - this is sketch 24 - well loosely... It's a Hero Arts shadow stamp with one of the snowflakes from the BF Blizzard set stamped in blue and Banana Frog simple greetings stamps. Plus star dust Stickles, naturally.
Another gift gard, I used up a scrap of the KI background paper, and stamped with one of the designs from my fave Christmas Circles set by Limited Edition Hampton Arts stamps, the return of the blizzard snowflake in the circles, an old MM rub-on... and icicle and star dust Stickles for good measure!
I have to say I would love to get my hands on more KI Winter 2004 papers, there is a real gap in my collection without these papers, as they are just my favourite all time set! Hope I get those value tins in Joann's after all!
YOu have made some fantastic cards there. I agree about the stickles ....it ain't Christmas if you haven't got stickles!lol
