Luscious Lime & Verryy Sparkly Too ;)

Hi lovely peeps and hope you are all OK today.

It’s that time of the week when we head across the water and catch up with our friends over at the Simon Says Stamp Challenge and this week our challenge is ….

Emboss It

and you can either heat or dry emboss here, or even both if you fancy it!!

The design team have created some awesome projects for your inspiration, and this week we are all featuring Stampendous products. Of course, you don't have to use them to join in but we would love to see them used if you have them :-)

As always, our lovely Heidi is giving away a fabulous …

… for one lucky winner to spend …

…right here.

So …..

… this is what I did and please excuse the terrible pic peeps.

I had the prettiest glitter ever and just HAD to use it for this challenge and it’s from the Stampendous GLITTER KIT PRETTY PRINCESS Ultra Fine Sparkle kit. 

What a beautimous colour!!!

What I did was to lay strips of 1cm DST on a piece of card, whip off the backing strip and sprinkle with the glitter - it makes a nice background I think.

The dies I used are Spellbinders FANCY LATTICE Shapeabilities Expandable Pattern Dies and Spellbinders DECORATIVE LABELS 8 Eight Nestabilities. Both of these are new this year and they are newbies to me as well. I LOVE them, espesh the fancy lattice – no end of possibilities with this one.

I expect that this isn't the last you’ll see of them on here peeps!!!

Here’s where I did me embossing.

I die cut the bloom using a Spellbinders Rose Creations set then ran the pieces through a Cuttlebug  Swiss Dots Embossing Folder before putting it all together :)

So that’s me done for now and I’m off to do some more work. The pile is going down but soooooooooooooooooooooooo slowly. Why is it that it grows at a much faster rate I wonder?????

Have the fabbiest of days and huggiest of hugs to all xxxx

Happy 5th birthday,Dawny. Your card is so bright and cheerful. Love the color combo and the beautiful flower. I am so sorry to hear of your flooding troubles. Hope that soon all will be back to normal. At least the cows are safe. Hope all the residents are too.
