Alicia's Creation!

Here's a card that we stamped at our meeting on Monday... This one was Alicia's card. It's another one that's so much more impressive to see in person than in the scan! The colours are great - Close to Cocoa with Purely Pomegranate and a little bit of Pretty in Pink. We used the Priceless stamp set with the So Swirly jumbo wheel. One thing that I learned in making this card is that when you want to colour on a stamp so it will be in different colours, you can actually use a blender pen to pick up ink and apply it to the stamp. I've only ever used a Stampin' Write Marker so it was good to know that this works. We used this to colour the flower in Purely Pomegranate. What you don't see so well in the scan is that we added some of the new coloured glitter to the little dots on the Close to Cocoa piece - we applied dots of the new Tombow Multi Purpose Adhesive first and then sprinked on the Rose Pink glitter. It makes the card look like it has tiny rhinestones all over the top... bling, bling! : ) And, we also added a little pink bead to the centre of the flower, using the Tombow Multi Purpose Adhesive for this also.

Thanks for the great card, Alicia!

Happy stampin'!
