Glitter 'N' Sparkle Challenge #173 - Embossing

Hi Everyone! time for another challenge over at the Glitter 'N' Sparkle Challenge Blog.

This week our challenge theme is:

Embossing - Dry or Heat

There are lots of great prizes on offer from our sponsors this week from our fab sponsors.

Our first sponsor is Lemon Shortbread. The prize is 3 images.

Our second sponsor is Lacy Sunshine Stamps. The prize is 3 images.

Our third sponsor is Arti Doodles. The prize is 4 images 

For my card I have used a super cut image from Lacy Sunshine Stamps - Lizabeth Wild Daisies. She is coloured with Copics.  I have used both dry and heat embossing. The greeting (Heidi Swapp) is heat embossed using black embossing powder, and the outline of the image is dry embossed to create the border around the image. The patterned paper I used is from Cosmo Cricket Mini Deck - Pixi-Licious. 

 Here is a close up of the image. The Copics I used are shown below.

Copics I used..

Our challenge will go for a week. Please play along and add your entry to the InLinkz at the bottom of the page here.

Glitter 'N' Sparkle Challenge #172 - Say it with Music

Hi Everyone - I have joined another new DT - I know - this is number 4!! But I am so excited about challenging and pushing myself after a year of struggle to get motivated. So I hope you all get involved with the fun challenges over at Glitter 'n' Spakle Challenge Blog.

Our Challenge Theme this week is:

Say It With Music !

So we need to see :

Your Project can be inspired by a Song, a Song Title, a Musical, an Opera, or even a Band...

There are lots of great prizes on offer from our sponsors this week from our fab sponsors.

Our first sponsor Bugaboo Stamps. Prize is 7 images from their store.

 

OUr second sponsor Ike's Art - Prize - $15 Gift Certificate.

And our third sponsor is Sami Stamps - Prize - $12 Gift Certificate. 

For my inspiration card my image is from Sami Stamps - Hot Cocoa Friends. The great thing about being on a Design Team is that you get to work with amazing companies and try your hand at using images you might not normally go for. This image was selected for me and I was very hesitant to start with but as I started colouring inspiration kept coming! I used the opportunity to try to put a pattern on each hat. For the light brown hat I added a texture look by using a very textured tea towel, dipped it in copic blender solution and dabbed. For the other hat I used some stamps again using Copic blender solution to create the pattern. I also pulled out the white puff paid - always fun.

Our challenge will go for a week. Please play along and add your entry to the InLinkz at the bottom of the page here.

Thanks for looking!
