For this challenge, I decided to make another Christmas card. Using the digital stamp from Bugaboo: Christmas words-JOY


I used some CTMH city escapes papers and glitter elements, some scotch green glitter tape, and some satin cardstock from Hero stamps.


 For the inside, I added more glitter elements and tape.

To my project:

 I had some fun coloring this file: Little-Penguin-Winter--winter-bench_p_2383 from our sponsor Bugaboo Stamps:
 I used Chameleon alcohol markers, which I'm still learning how to use as you can see: 

The Cabochons are from Connie's crafty cart ebay store, as well as the green stickles I added everywhere 
to add some more sparkle to this image. I also used some clear Wink of Stella to the snowflakes, snow, and cheeks
of the penguins, which is hard to see in this images.


For the inside, I added more glitter cardstock and a sentiment from Tattered Lace. Also accented with wink of stella
marker. The ink I used, as well as cardstocks are from CTMH. The patterned paper is from Tattered Lace Magazine 
(their free paper in their special Christmas issue).


I hope you enjoyed this project and decide to play along this fun challenge.
Scrappy hugs,

To create the descending sun, I used:


Some further picks from my sparkling project:


I dry embossed the treat box with Anna Griffing's and from another company for the wheat on the handles. I added fall ribbon leaves, a shippie (Creative Embellishments) for the fall leave and one for the acorn, which I distressed with TH distressing inks, as shown on a previous picture. And for accenting this glitter paper printed flower some gold sequins.

For this bloghop, mostly about princesses, I decided to make a mini album for my daughter from her last Singing Princesses birthday party from her friend Angela.


I used a DCWV paper pack, Once Upon a Time, a paper crafting world cutting file (crown), and some distressing cardstocks from Ranger. I added some vintage velvet glitter to some parts, a Prima Flower, some flowers cut from the file, and some prima rhinstones. I found the Rapunzel images on the internet and just printed them in my color ink printer.

I really enjoyed making this project and made a google+ album for each page: https://plus.google.com/u/0/113294990274191982467/posts
