Gold Bird Cage
At SweetStamps blog today our theme is Silver or Gold. Please join us for a chance to win $20.00 in FREE stamps by entering your Silver or Gold creation in our challenge. If you enter using a SweetStamps stamp you will be entered twice in the drawing.
For todays card I started with a white A2 card and a 4" x 5-1/4" piece of printed bird paper from the Authentique Lively 6x6 paper pad both were pounced with Delicata Golden Glitz ink. The printed paper was outlined with a Gold Leafing Pen. I stamped the 6007 Robyn Bird Silhouette on Stardream text-weight paper with Distress Embossing ink and heat embossed with Queen's Gold EP then hand cut it. I die cut the B198 Bird Cage and B117S Mini Fanciful Flourish both from Cheery Lynn Designs from Gold Mirror card stock. I glued the bird to another piece of Stardreams paper and used Krylon Spray Adhesive on the bird cage to layer it over the bird. I cut around the bird cage and used foam dots to layer it on the card. To attach the flourish I used Micro Glue Dots because I wanted some areas to remain loose from the card. I colored the rhinestones with a YR24 Copic marker.

Lacy Tree Christmas
At SweetStamps blog today our theme is Christmas. Please join us for a chance to win $20.00 in FREE stamps by entering your Christmas creation in our challenge. If you enter using a SweetStamps stamp you will be entered twice in the drawing.
For this card I started with a step card using the CS25 Center Step Die. All the stamps I used are from SweetStamps.com and the ink I used is Satin Rose Shades Dye ink. I stamped the background design using one of the stamps from the S601 Decorative Elements set, this set of stamps has 7 beautiful design elements that are awesome for creating backgrounds, borders or just stamping alone. I used a course pouncer on the sides of the card then stamped 9074 Vertical Joy. I used the Satin Rose ink direct to paper and also sponged the ink on a piece of white card stock. I stamped the 8006 Lace Tree using Distress Embossing ink and heat embossed it with Fine Detail White EP, then hand cut the tree and used foam dots to attach it to the front of the card. I used the same piece of colored paper to cut out the B148 Holly Lace Flourish die from Cheery Lynn Designs and used Krylon Adhesive Spray to layer it on the card.
For the inside of the card I used more of the colored paper I made than layered on a piece of white card stock that I sponged and pounced with ink. I stamped it with the 957 May the Peace and used the corner of the element stamp in the corners of the paper. To finish it I added more of the Holly Lace Flourish.
