LOVE SPARKLES - INSPIRED BY FAIRY FLOSS

I am joining in with this weeks Global Design Project Challenge. This weeks theme is Amusement Park.

With this is mind, my card is inspired by fairy floss.

To create the background I used Rose Red reinker in a spritzer with some water and sprayed it on Whisper White cardstock. The background reminded me of pretty pink of fairy floss. I then put some rubbing alcohol and some clear wink of stella in a spritz bottle and sprayed it on the background to give it a sparkle. I used the splatter stamp from Gorgeous Grunge in Rose Red to add a little more texture to the card. "Celebrate" from the Love Sparkles stamp set was then stamped on a small piece of Whisper White in Rose Red. I cut out two of the small images from the Sunshine Wishes Die and added them to the card.

My lovely friend Ellen, thought my card would look better on a Pink Pirouette card base, so this is for her.

I hope you see the yummy, sugary colours of fairy floss in my card just like I do.

Thank you for joining me today,
Rosalie

Crazy Crafters Blog Hop with our speical guest - Connie Stewart

Welcome to the Crazy Crafters Blog Hop for November. This month we are focusing on Sale-a-Bration products. We hope you find great inspiration from the projects.

You may just be starting the blog hop here at my blog - Rosalie Desmond or may have come from the person previous to me in the list. If you get off track at any time, the full lineup towards the bottom, will help you move along from blog to blog so you see all the projects.

This month we have another guest stamper - Connie Stewart!!! I can't believe how lucky we are to have her joining us on our hope today. Thank you so much Connie for joining us today. Her designs and tutorials are such an inspiration. If you are not familiar with Connie's blog, I suggest you put it on your to-do list, once you have finished hopping. Once again a huge thank you goes out to Kylie Bertucci  for giving the Crazy Crafters this opportunity.


For today's card I have teamed up one of my favoritue stamp sets - Gorgeous Grunge, with a new Sale-a-Bration set - Botanicals for you.

Botanicals for you is available for free during sale-a-bration when you spend $90. I love this set. The sentiment is big and bold, while the floral accents contrast in size.

For this card I have only used the sentiment from Botanicals for you as I am needing a male card so I did not add the flowers but decided to grab some splotches from gorgeous grunge.

Thanks for stopping by,

Hip-Hip Hooray!

Time for another challenge.

This time I am playing along with the Stamp Ink Paper Challenge (SIP challenge). This week it is a colour challenge.

While I love this colour combination, they aren't colours I usually use. What an excellent opportunity to create something a little different and focus on the men out there. I don't know about you but I have very few male cards in my stash which often leaves me in a rush when I need one.

I kept this card very simple using coordinating card stock and ink of real read, Bermuda Bay and Smokey Slate. I grabbed my gorgeous grunge stamp set to make the splotches and combined it with the "Hip-hip Hooray" sentiment from the Bravo set. Simply cut the card stock to size and punched out a few real red stars.


The sentiment Hip-hip Hooray I find very versatile. This card can be used as a congratulations, birthday or job well done. A great one to have on hand that can be used for most occasions.

Thank you for visiting.
