This week over at the Inspire Create Stamping Challenges we have a theme challenge! I decided to use the Star of Light Bundle to make an Easel card. I've not used this stamp set this year, I love it and thought it would be perfect for it. I have used the star die to cut out the aperture in the base, the silver glimmer layer and also the top Whisper White panel. I sandwiched a piece of vellum between the Silver Glimmer Paper and the top Whisper White panel ... VIEW POST

Winter Wonder Christmas Card
I used the Winter Wonder Textured Impressions Embossing Folder to create this simple but effective card. It is simply embossed onto the Champagne Foil sheet (9.5 cm x 13.8 cm) and layered onto a mat of Basic Black card ( 10 cm x 14.3 cm) . My card base is Whisper White cut at 14. 8 cm x 10.5 cm.

My card base is in Whisper White and my layer is the DSP. I have stamped the snowflakes in Pool Party and the sentiment in Island Indigo. As if the foiled DSP wasn't shiny enough I have added ...
