It was LOVE at first sight when I first saw the Red Glimmer Paper in the Stampin' Up! Occasions Mini Catalog. All that glam without the glitter mess and it punches with ease–that's my kind of paper crafting. Today's Mojo Monday Sketch Challenge (MOJO172) let's the new glimmer paper really strut it's sparkly stuff!
DON'T MISS! The Stampin' Up! Occasions Mini Catalog goes live tomorrow. I'll post the on-line version of the catalog along with my Top 10 Favorites from the Occasions Mini Catalog shortly after midnight (Mountain Time) tonight!
STAMPIN' PRETTY TIPS:
-
This valentine is perfect for my husband, The clean lines with a touch of glitz is abundantly masculine. - The Basic Black Circle was cropped with my 2 1/2" Circle Punch (available again). I used the Circle Scissor Plus to crop the Whisper White circle 1/4" smaller (to 2 1/4"). I love being able to make circles just the right size! Click for my Circle Scissor Plus Video Tutorial.
- A Whisper White layer (4" x 5 1/4") on a Whisper White Card Base (4 1/4" x 5 1/2") is a classy touch.
- I like my brads to line up and stand at attention. Here are some quick video tips to show you how.
