Glimmer-ing Christmas Tree

This is a really cute card and so very easy to make.  The inspiration came from Connie Babbert, I believe.  The patterns for how you fold the 1/2 circle is on her blog. I used a sheet of Pear Pizzaz from the Hostess In-Color paper stack.  It is studded with an assortment of the new glimmer brads.  The card layers are real red and Whisper White CS embossed with the Big Shot and the Petals-a-Plenty embossing folder. It's ties with a beautiful real red Grosgrain ribbon.

Rubbernecker Stamps-Wacky Wednesday #23

This is my first entry for the Rubbernecker Stamps-Wacky Wednesday #23 Rubbernecker Wacky Wednesday is inspired by some of my favorite embossing folders and embosslits. The paper and ribbon is Stampin' Up Melon Mambo and Green Galore (Embosslit Sweetest Stem). The Cuttlebug die cut butterfly hovering above the Prima Marketing flower is on a hidden spiral and embossed with a Cuttlebug embossing folder. A little glitter gel pen adds some bling. The sentiment tag is cut from the SU Modern Label punch (trimmed) and stamped with StazOn.

Mojo Monday Week #98 Challenge

Stampin' Up!s Raspberry Tart Designer Series Paper provided the inspiration for this weeks Mojo Monday Week #98 Challenge (Mojo Monday Website). The solid color cardstock is the new SU Melon Mambo, as is the polka dot grosgrain ribbon. The Melon Mambo circle is embossed with two Stampin' Up! speciality embossing folders (Elegant Bouquet and Manhatten Flower); the center Manhatten Flower is embossed on vellum. Sentiment is from the Fresh Cuts stamp set, stamped in Whisper White and punch out with the Modern Label punch. A little bit of clear glitter gel pen was used to add a little sparkle.
