Razzle Dazzle with Poppin' Pastels

Here is a little card we made recently in my Stamp Club. It is made using a simple technique called poppin pastels. It is so fun to use the pastels and then layer the look with the spritzer tool and additional chalk around the edges. Makes me feel a little bit like an artist! I used sponge daubers to apply the pastels. I have tried every tool on earth and have decided that the daubers provide the best control for me. I am having a lot of fun with these new In Colors. Here I have Melon Mambo. The stamp sets used are Oval All and Razzle Dazzle.

Lovin' Every Minute of it!

Here we were last week at Convention. We had a great time and learned so much. These are some of the most incredible friends in the world!

Back From Convention

I am back from Convention and ready to stamp! We took SLC by storm once again! What a fantastic time I had with my fellow demonstrators and team members. I saw so many fantastic ideas and creative projects that I can't wait to get busy making them! We got up early stamped all day and stayed up late! It was a fantastic time. This was my third convention and I wouldn't have missed it for the world!

Here is a card I created to swap with my fellow 2008 Rising Stars. These ladies always inspire me with their creativity. I will be sharing some of their cards over the next few days. This card uses all black embellishments. The bling is so much fun--the glitter comes from the Fine Cosmo collection. I love the way the brads and glitter work with the New In Colors and the bold brights on this card. The bottom layer is made using the Texturz plates. I learned a new technique at Convention that you will want to try. Spritz the paper with water before running through the Big Shot. This gives the paper even more detail when using the Texturz Plates!!.
